liu. Soldiers of tlio 81st army
division continued mopping up
on Anguar island, six miles
southward.
Returning lor their Thursday
attack on Manila, the American
raiders found lessened Japanese
aerial resistance and a harbor
surprisingly full of ships.
In aerial combats. they
downed 59 planes against 110
the previous day. But tlen
shipping bag was nearly double
the 11 sunk and 26 damaged
on September 20.
Box Score
Nimitz issued this box score
of Japanese losses September
Ships sunk 40.
Small craft sunk 6.
Ships probably sunk 11.
Ships damaged 35.
Small craft damaged U.
Floating drydocks 2.
Aircraft destroyed in combat
189-
Aircraft destroyed on the
ground 188.
Planes damaged on the
ground 45.
Planes damaged by ships
gunfire- 3.
That means that in two days
the Japanese have lost 86 ships
put out of action, and 405
planes as well as 17 small craft
and two drydocks.
11 Planes Lost
Nimitz reported 11 American
planes were lost in the two-day
strike. This was less than he
had previously reported for the
first day alone. Presumably
some planes returning from the
initial attacks landed on car
riers other than their own and
had not been reported safe at
the time of the September 20
announcement.
Reporting on the two-day as
sault, Nimitz said last night:
"Our losses in this daring
and highly successful strike
were 11 planes in combat, 10
pilots and five air troopmen.
There was no loss or damage
to any of our surface ships."
