The bombardment followed the Attack on Sydney Harbour on 31 May, and was conducted shortly after ''I-24'' shelled the eastern suburbs of Sydney. During the attack ''I-21'' fired 34 shells at Newcastle, including eight illumination rounds, but caused little damage. The Australian gunners at Fort Scratchley fired four shells at the submarine, but scored no hits. ==Background== During 1942 and 1943 Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) submarines conducted a number of patrols along Australia's east coast. On 16 May 1942 the submarine ''I-29'' attacked the Soviet freighter ''Wellen'' south-east of Newcastle, but did not cause any damage to the ship. In response, a naval force was dispatched from Sydney to attempt to locate the submarine and ships were not permitted to sail between Newcastle and Sydney for 24 hours. On 23 May ''I-29''s floatplane flew over Newcastle and Sydney searching for shipping which could be attacked by midget submarines. On the night of 31 May three Japanese midget submarines attacked shipping in Sydney Harbour. The ultimate aim was to sink the U.S. Navy Heavy Cruiser , although unsuccessful in this objective, the attack did result in the sinking of the accommodation ship HMAS ''Kuttabul''. All three midget submarines were however lost in the attack. Following this raid, the large submarines which had launched the midgets attacked shipping off the east coast; these included two attacks on ships near Newcastle on the night of 3 June. At 10:18 pm the coastal steamer ''Age'' was shelled by ''I-24'' south-east of Norah Head; she did not sustain any damage and docked at Newcastle at 1 am the next day. At about midnight on 3 June the coaster ''Iron Chieftain'' was torpedoed and sunk by ''I-24'' near where ''Age'' had been attacked.〔Gill (1968), pp. 74–75〕〔Jenkins (1992), pp. 240–241〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shelling of Newcastle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
