Excellent small scenario, US Army attacking 2 caves with a small bunch of Japanese infantry, over half of them already reduced, and a 20mm AA battery supporting. I pulled a poor rated Major for the CO, hence the title for this AAR. I split the US force to try to take the western cave and tie down the supporting Japanese forces on the eastern hill to keep them from shooting at the assault force as it attacked the western cave. This did well, and the Major took personal charge of the assault force and succeeded in chasing out the Japanese in 2 turns of assaulting with only a single step loss, and eliminating 3 steps of Japanese infantry and their LT in the process. US arty suppressed the Japanese AA for a turn allowing another US force to assault them, but they succeeded in holding out even longer than the first cave. As US forces maneuvered to assault the second cave, the Major again lead the assault. This time, Japanese defenders demoralized the good Major, and disrupted the remainder of the force, adding another step loss to the US forces. The Major failed his morale check several turns in a row, not running but walking quickly towards the rear while the rest of the troops rallied and succeeded in taking the second cave. At the end of 13 turns, only a single Japanese LT had survived and he was being surrounded and would be captured soon, while the Major failed his morale check once again. A fun little battle that would be a good candidate for hidden setup for the Japanese force in a 2-player game. This little jewel could also be used for a 4-player training game giving 2 players each a cave and a supporting force and the US could have the Major in one group and the Captain in another.
