Date	Reporter		Opponent	Result	Comments
2018-05-04	(D) Tom Kearney	vs	Lindsey Murillo	Japanese win	During the initial night attack the Japanese managed to capture all of Hill 100, broke through the western jungle line, and inflicted over 80% casualties on the Marine defenders. The Japanese were aided by four fire missions of 70mm OBA but suffered nearly 40% casualties. The Marines determined that they couldn't muster the strength to hold the rest of the ridge and conceded the campaign.
2014-10-29	(D) Richard Carter	vs	Kevin Killeen	American (USMC) win	I did not analyze this CG well and went for the front hill alone. It turned into a bloody slugfest that seemed un-winnable by the third date. So I threw in the towel.
2012-04-23	(A) Don Lazov	vs	rcarter	In progress	We begun the Green Inferno CG. Currently on CG Scenario 1.
2011-06-27	(D) Paul Jones	vs	Steve Petras	Japanese win
