Week 299 - Kamikazes Versus Admirals! - May 18, 1945

Описание: The kamikaze menace continues unabated, with suicide flyers hitting not one but two Admirals's flagships. There's plenty of fighting on land, though, as the Americans advance on Okinawa and take a dam on Luzon to try and solve the Manila water crisis, but even after last week's German surrender there is also still scattered fighting in Europe.
