Well, the USS Houston was known as the Galloping Ghost of the Java Coast...

But the patrol icon may be a bug. I'll investigate. Thanks for the report.

As far as damaged ships, if they are badly damaged (over 60% damaged and speed less than 10 knots), they will drop out of their TF and head for the nearest functional friendly base, even if it is too small to normally support them (e.g. a crippled CV could limp into a minor base for temporary repairs). If the ship is badly damaged enough, it may not be able to make it to a larger base until the minor base can patch it up, which may take a while.
