After Japan successfully conquered the Dutch East Indies, Admiral Chuichi Nagumo took a powerful carrier force into the Indian Ocean with the goal of driving the British out. Due to the conquest of Hawaii, Nagumo was only able to take 3 carriers with him, as some had been allocated to the occupation of Hawaii, but he was still able to inflict enough damage to sink a British Carrier, forcing the Royal Navy onto the defensive. Later, footage of the Raid was shown at the movies in Occupied Hawaii.

abstract
  • After Japan successfully conquered the Dutch East Indies, Admiral Chuichi Nagumo took a powerful carrier force into the Indian Ocean with the goal of driving the British out. Due to the conquest of Hawaii, Nagumo was only able to take 3 carriers with him, as some had been allocated to the occupation of Hawaii, but he was still able to inflict enough damage to sink a British Carrier, forcing the Royal Navy onto the defensive. Although the raid was a great success, many of the commanders in Hawaii didn't care much for the raid as it concerned the Western side of the empire, while they themselves were more interested in the East. Later, footage of the Raid was shown at the movies in Occupied Hawaii.
