Sweep of Brisbane – unopposed.
KB has arrived in the vicinity of Brisbane. After skirting Suva in the hope of finding an Allied convoy KB set a westerly course towards Australia. Yamaguchi had a choice of Sydney or Brisbane and chose Brisbane on the expectation that there would be warships of some kind in the base and probably a thin CAP. The arrival was announced by the unopposed sweep of Zeros. More ominously for the local commanders was the urgent report from AM Junee of enemy bombers falling upon her.
