INVASIVE ACTIONS DURING THE FIGHT (-_-.)

In an attempt to strengthen their defensive positioning for their empire in the South Pacific, Japanese forces decided to invade Port Moresby in New Guinea and Tulagi (which was eventually conquered) in the southeastern Solomon Islands. The plan to accomplish this, called Operation MO apparently, involved several major units of Japan's Combined Fleet, including two fleet carriers and a light carrier to provide air cover for the invasion fleets, under the overall command of Japanese Admiral Shigeyoshi Inoue.
