ORIGINAL: Yaab Andy, I am attaching a zip file. It contains a doc file about ships (xAKL, xAP, and support ships) which were not present in Pearl Harbor on 7 Dec 1941. You have already amended three of them, but there is a few more. Nice info, thx Yaab. I have missed the Florence D, still had her at Pearl in my mod. Concerning the Hirondelle - she was under repairs at Hong Kong and unable to move, was captured by the Japanese and put into service as the Gyonan Maru. See https://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USN/USN-Chron/USN-Chron-1941.html Gyonan Maru is not in stock. Note that the chronology also mentions U.S. freighter Admiral Y.S. Williams which the Japanese captured at Hong Kong and put into service as Tatsutama Maru. Tatsutama Maru is not in stock, however there is a cargo called Admiral Y. Williams at San Diego which has a sunk date in the editor which corresponds to the day Hong Kong fell. Since capturing vessels is not possible in AE, I have deleted Hirondelle and Admiral Y. Williams from the Allied OOB and added Gyonan Maru and Tatsutama Maru to the Japanese side, becoming available at Hong Kong in March 1942 with some damage to repair.
