USA - The New Porter Class Destroyer - 24 Dec 1937 to 10 Jan 1938

24 Dec 1937: The 5th 'Red Devils' Division has been deployed and is placed in training.
26 Dec 1937: More bad news....
....and our majority is gone too.
01 Jan 1938: Let's start the New Year with a new Destroyer. The bare bones of a 1936 Destroyer Hull.
I add 2 x Anti-Air II....
....then 2 x Light Battery II.
I add Torpedo Tubes....
....then Sonar and Rangekeeper Fire Control.
I select Brooklyn Naval Yard as the MIO.
The first ship is USS Porter so I call it Porter Class Destroyer.
I add it to the Production queue for Escort ships.
The 3 Aircraft Carriers USS Ranger, USS Lexington and USS Saratoga are fully-trained and are returned to the Carrier Division, Battle Force.
I check the status of the 1st Light Tank Brigade and as expected we don't have enough equipment.
I carry out another Small Lobbying Effort....
....and Special Measures. That should achieve a majority in the Senate and House.
The Submarine USS S-28 needs more training.
05 Jan 1938: The end of the British Empire as we know it.
06 Jan 1938: An Absolute Monarch???
10 Jan 1938: Eight trained Farragut Class Destroyers are assigned to the 4th Submarine Squadron. I want them working together.
Finally the Heavy Cruiser USS Wichita is assigned to Cruiser Division 3.
A lot of Navy in this post.
