U.S. PACIFIC FLEET HEADQUARTERS, Pearl Harbor, May 2 (U.P.)—A giant United States task force, in a triplespearhead attack, has destroyed 126 Japanese planes and spread ruin through ground installations in a three-day operation against Truk, Sat-awan and Ponape islands in the Carolines, it was announced today.
Guns of battleships and cruisers added their weight to the bombs of the carrier-borne planes, which carried out the operations—of such magnitude, a Japanese broadcast revealed, that the enemy feared an actual invasion of the Carolines was imminent.
In the first day of the operation alone 125 enemy planes were destroyed — 60 in air combat, 60 aground and five by the guns of the warships. By the second day the Japanese air force had been all wiped out in the sky or crushed in its own airdromes, and only one enemy plane rose in challenge. It was blown to bits.
In addition to these 126 planes, the warships shot down five enemy search planes which spotted them last Wednesday while they were on their way northeastward from the New Guinea coast, where they aided in the Hollandia operation.
No American ship was even damaged in the entire three days, Adm. Chester W. Nimitz announced in his communique revealing the raids, and Nimitz said that aircraft losses were light, though he listed about 30 flight personnel as missing.
Carrier-borne planes carried out the attacks on Truk, made Saturday and Sunday, and dropped 800 tons of bombs on the islands sheltered in the great lagoon.
