25 May 1942

Fiji: Yamashiro and Fuso's turn to shell Suva. Wasn't that effective. The following land attack reduced forts to 2 with light casualties on both sides, slightly higher for the enemy as the tide starts to turn. The enemy is low on supplies.
Coral Sea: DMSs are now evacuating the damaged AKL, a US sub attempted an attack but missed. One B-17 shot down over Port Moresby.
I-17 sinks an APD off Penrhyn Island. The convoy included tankers and troop transports.
Burma: The enemy is responding to Lashio's fall by bombing it with Wellingtons and B-25s, their first appearances of the war. His raids into occupied Burma so far have been with far less capable Blenheims.
Arabian Sea: I-153 torpedoes a cargo ship off the Indian coast. I think it survived though.
