A shell crashed ashore. In the dun-colored houses along Kahuluis waterfront, stevedores and their women heard the gun again, like a door slamming, and again the crash of the shell. The Jap fired ten rounds in all. Then the submarine disappeared in the night. Announcing this attack on an undefended, unimportant cane-&-pineapple port, the U.S. Navy reported: no casualties, negligible damage.
