American Forces Strike Blows at Japan Supply Lines
American naval and air forces struck decisive blows at Japan's long supply lines as bombers and submarines sank at least six ships and damaged five more in attacks reaching from waters around Japan to New Guinea and the northern approaches to Australia. Allied forces, including Dutch, Australian, and British units, have already sunk or destroyed 13 Japanese transports. Admiral Wart, recently retired, warned Japanese losses would pose a future concern as maintaining the supply lines requires hundreds of ships, and the intensified sinkings hinder Japan's ability to replace lost transports.
