I'm sure I also read/saw something that stated that BHP was fired upon as well which caused minor damage to one of the furnaces. Can't remember though. :hmm:

FWIW have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_na...tralian_waters

At one stage the Japanese actually landed on Australian territory!

Of course, the worst battle was the "Battle of Brisbane", where the "enemy" was NOT the Japanese but the Americans...:rotfl:
