June 2008

Tasked with finding and destroying enemy shipping during the Guadalcanal Landings battle, the AH squad managed to send 10 enemy vessels to the bottom. Members finding their targets were AH_Fast_Eddy_CO (3), AH_Nightrider (2), AH_GRIM_BXO (2), AH_Phantom (2) and AH_Ojibwa_Loon (1). For their actions and success in their assignments ATAC is pleased to bestow upon them the Anti-Shipping Service ribbon.

Das_Borb_JG26 helped develop anti-shipping tactics used by the JP forces in successfully sinking ships of the allied invasion fleet during the Guadalcanal Landings battle. He also sank several Allied ships as well, himself. For this he is awarded the Anti-Shipping Service ribbon.

January 2008

During the Battle of the Marianas, Allied Forces sent 144 Japanese Aircraft carriers to the bottom, a remarkable achievement. Three pilots in particular, Lando_Sackett, DW_Blazeoglory, and AH_SkyJackeL_XO, are credited with EIGHT carriers each. Several pilots of the Allied Air Force downed at least four carriers each, and have thus been decorated. We are honored to award these Men, the Anti-Shipping Service ribbon for their efforts.
