Part 1 of Scenario 11: Okinawa
Below is a link to my strategy and the results of the first three turns. I plan to finish this scenario and the invasion of Japan (the last scenario in this campaign) before the end of the year.
https://averysgameblog.wordpress.com/2019/10/15/order-of-battle-ww2-us-navy-campaign-scenario-11-okinawa/I did not update the game blog for three months for all sorts of reasons. This is a hobby and not a job. My wife and I went on a two week transatlantic cruise. But most importantly my wife suddenly went 100% deaf in one ear and had vertigo for several days. The hearing loss is permanent and nothing can be done. This is a mystery to medical science.
Because of my extensive training and knowledge of statistics including medical statistics, I read the summary literature on her problem. She got the right treatment very fast. But this problem is one of the hardest to set up a medical study for that I've ever seen - a thought shared by three different physicians including two specialists.
She will never be able to tell the direction of sound again. She has great difficulty understanding people talking if there is much background noise. Our days of going to concerts is over and she needs to avoid anything that can damage her good ear so she will not be pulling clays for me shooting shotguns any longer.
Just one of those things that happens as people get older and there are a lot of things that could be worse.
