Background:
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:
Enemy troop concentrations have been observed on the east part of Tinian, close to “long beach”. We will approach low level from the east to stay undetected for as long as possible. The leading pathfinder aircraft will drop a flare on the target, after which we will attack the beach with rockets, bombs and strafing. Stay feet wet to avoid AAA concentrations near Saipan airbase, and be prepared to handle any enemy fighters that may respond.
