Later, the same officer commanded a new task force supported by the carrier Yorktown on 10 March 1942 with the same purpose, amongst other objectives, in East New Guinea.The American bombings were supported by Royal Australian Air Force air strikes against the Japanese aerodromes in Rabaul during March.
