Things I did not know

It turns out Western Australia was bombed multiple times during World War Two. I'm sure this was never mentioned in history at school - I'm sure I would have remembered.

Places that were bombed - Wyndham, Broome, Port Hedland, Derby, Onslow, Exmouth Gulf, Kulumburu, and Port Gregory.

I'm pretty sure we had a passing mention of Broome, but the rest are a surprise.
