Champion @Winston Churchill, you got me thinking.
Some years ago, I was privileged to talk with a gentleman who was growing up in Newcastle through the years of World War 2.
He told me of the time suburbs of Newcastle were actually shelled from a Japanese submarine in June, 1942 (the sub was one of the Jap subs that were more infamous for their attack within Sydney Harbour).
Here are some details:

From the 70s. The good old days when you could duck into Kmart and pick up a Rifle with your toilet seat.

Was that the era when St.George won 12 grand finals a row without the help of the referee/establishment?
