In a fictional campaign during WW2 allied forces have recently established small bases on Guam and Rota. A detachment of RAF and USAF fighters are tasked with supporting offensive operations towards Tinian and Saipan islands in the north. US and Japanese naval forces are maneuvering around the Mariana islands and a major naval engagement has just started with raids from carrier based aircraft.
Situation:
Our marine raiders has attempted a daring rescue of downed airmen from Tinians east coast using rubber boats. Unfortunately they have come under heavy attack and need assistance. Take off at dawn with light A/G loadouts and coordinate with TWOJAR in the area.
