| Описание: | As was the case at Pearl Harbor, the Australian town was unprepared, and although it came under attack from the air another 58 times in 1942 and 1943, the raids on 19 February were massive and devastating by comparison. They were also a significant action in the Pacific campaign of World War II and represented a psychological blow to the Australian population, several weeks after hostilities with Japan had begun. Although it was a less significant military target, a greater number of bombs were dropped on Darwin than were used in the attack on Pearl Harbor. The raids were the first of almost 100 air raids against Australia during 1942–43. This event is often called the "Pearl Harbor of Australia". Darwin had a population of about 2,000 at the time, the normal civilian population of about 5,000 having been reduced by evacuation. The Japanese air raids on Darwin, Australia, on 19 February 1942 were the largest attacks ever mounted by a foreign power against Australia. It was a strategically-placed naval port and airbase, and there were about 15,000 Allied soldiers in the area. |
