High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Second Battle of the Java Sea was the last naval action of the Netherlands East Indies campaign, of 1941 42. It occurred on 1 March 1942, two days after the first Battle of the Java Sea. It saw the end of the last Allied ships operating in the waters around Java, allowing Japanese forces to complete their conquest of the Netherlands East Indies unhindered. The American-British-Dutch-Australian Command fleet defeated at the first battle, on 27 February 1942 had been dispersed or sunk by the Japanese. HMAS Perth and USS Houston had retired to Tanjong Priok, the port of the capital, Batavia, in the west of the island. They were to withdraw via the Sunda Strait to Tjilatjap on the south of the island and departed on the evening of 28 February; but encountering the Japanese Western Invasion Force later that night in Bantam Bay, they were both sunk. This is referred to as the battle of Sunda Strait.
