November 29, 1942
"Results of big naval battle fully ascertained," and restated. Attempting to reconcile the results, I conclude they're really retracting one cruiser and one destroyer. Below a report on the battle of the 14th is a clever little piece: "According to a report from Washington, the Navy Department revealed that those either killed, wounded or missing from November 1 to November 15 total 17,252." The actual announcement was 497 killed or missing and 252 wounded; the big figure is the count since Pearl. |
