OOBWWII:Pacific Campaign-Carriers don't carry over to next mission?

Campaign mode. I fought the Marshall/Gilberts mission where I had 2 carriers. One was lightly damaged (10>8) the other untouched. Ended in Victory with one secondary objective completed (3 of 3 fuel depots). Move on to Coral Sea and I have zero carriers in my deployed force. Had to spend all my purchase points for one carrier and its air complement. Everything I watch on YouTube starts with at least one. Any ideas? I overwhelmingly succeeded in Philippines & Bataan and still got a victory in the Marshalls/Gilbert?

UPDATE: I spent most of my points to buy 1 carrier and its air wing, after about turn 5 they gave me a carrier fully equipped from the far south. It took a couple turns to get them in the fight, so I guess it's about the same as having one and buying a second at the outset like most videos I've seen. Perhaps the damage I suffered in the prior episode delayed my other carrier from showing up. After a bad start I scratched one carrier, and with a lot of late reinforcements prevented Moresby from falling when it looked like it was toast after 10/30 turns.
