In the early morning darkness as submarine USS Saury was plying the Makassar Strait trying to avoid being illuminated by burning ships damaged a few hours earlier in the Battle of Makassar Strait, Saury was unexpectedly illuminated by a spotlight from a Japanese patrol craft less than 200 yards away. Saury dove deep and evaded the subsequent depth charge attack. ww2dbase [Saury | Makassar Strait | DS]

In the 24-hours from midnight to midnight, Thresher made three different attacks on this convoy. Japanese destroyer Hokaze was hit with two torpedoes and damaged so badly she had to be beached at Sibaya Harbor to prevent her sinking. Transport Yoneyama Maru and two tankers were sunk. ww2dbase [Thresher | Makassar Strait | DS]
