Question: What was the name the name of the conquest from 1941 to 1942 that the Japansese boat "Tomozuru" fought in?
Context: The 43rd Army was a Red Army field army of World War II that served on the Eastern Front.  Formed in late July 1941, the army fought in the Battle of Smolensk (1941).  It was forced to retreat after German troops broke through in October 1941 and subsequently fought in the Battle of Moscow.  The army then fought in the Rzhev-Vyazma Offensive.  After the end of the offensive, the army held its positions and transferred to the Demidov area in late 1942.  It fought in the Battle of Smolensk (1943).  During the summer of 1944 the army fought in Operation Bagration.  In the fall the army advanced into the Baltic region and fought in the Riga Offensive (1944) and the Battle of Memel.  In 1945 the army fought in the East Prussian Offensive before being placed in reserve near the end of April.  The 43rd Army was disbanded postwar in July 1946. The 229th Infantry Regiment was an infantry regiment in the Imperial Japanese Army.  The 229th consisted mainly of conscripts from Gifu Prefecture.  The regiment was attached to the 38th Division.  The regiment participated during the Second Sino-Japanese War, the conquest of Hong Kong in 1941, the Dutch East Indies in early 1942, the Guadalcanal Campaign and Papua Campaign.  While the 1st & 2nd Battalions were on Guadalcanal, its 3rd Battalion fought in the Battle of Buna–Gona in Territory of Papua from November 1942 to January 1943 where the 3rd Battalion was destroyed. The "Chidori"-class torpedo boat (千鳥型水雷艇 , Chidori-gata suiraitei ) was an Imperial Japanese Navy class of torpedo boats that served during the Second World War.  They proved to have too much armament for the hull and "Tomozuru" (友鶴 ) capsized shortly after completion in heavy weather.  The entire class had to be rebuilt before they became satisfactory sea-boats.  They saw service in the Battle of the Philippines and the Dutch East Indies campaign as escorts and continued in that role for the rest of the war.  Three were sunk during the war and the fourth was seized by the British at Hong Kong after the end of the war where it was scrapped later. Motor Torpedo Boat "PT-59 was a "PT-20"-class motor torpedo boat of the United States Navy, built by the Electric Launch Company of Bayonne, New Jersey.  The boat was laid down as Motor Boat Submarine Chaser "PTC-27, and was reclassified as BPT-11 when assigned to transfer to Britain under Lend-Lease.  However, this was cancelled, and she was reclassified as "PT-59" prior to launch on 8 October 1941, and was completed on 5 March 1942.  She is noted for being the third command of then-Lieutenant, junior grade (LTJG) John F. Kennedy (who later became President of the United States) in the Pacific Theater during World War II. The 53rd Army was a field army of the Soviet Union's Red Army which was formed in August 1941, disbanded in December 1941, and reformed in May 1942.  It fought throughout World War II before again being disbanded after the war in October 1945.  The army was first formed for the Anglo-Soviet invasion of Iran and was disbanded there in December 1941.  The army reformed in May 1942.  It fought in the Demyansk Pocket, the Battle of Kursk, the Battle of Belgorod, the Battle of the Dnieper, the Battle of the Korsun–Cherkassy Pocket, the Uman–Botoșani Offensive, the Jassy–Kishinev Offensive, the Battle of Debrecen, the Budapest Offensive, and the Prague Offensive.  At the end of the war in Europe it was moved to the Far East and fought in the Soviet invasion of Manchuria.  The army was disbanded in October 1945. The division was activated 1919 near Petrograd during the Russian Civil War, and fought on the western front of that war and in the Soviet-Polish War.  Until 1923 its headquarters was at Minsk.  During the 1930s the division was part of the 5th Rifle Corps, stationed in the Belarussian Military District.  It was moved north in 1939 and fought in the Winter War, including at the Battle of Kelja, later joining the newly formed 13th Army.  In July 1941 the division was part of the 3rd Rifle Corps of the Transcaucasian Military District.  By an order of 23 July 1941, the 3rd Rifle Corps became the 46th Army, as of 1 August 1941, and the 4th Rifle Division thus became part of the 46th Army.  In the middle of April 1942 the division under Colonel I.P. Roslogo was fighting as part of the 12th Army.  In August 1942 it participated in the Battle of the Caucasus.  The division was disbanded after heavy combat in November 1942. Tomozuru (友鶴 ) was one of four "Chidori"-class torpedo boat s of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN).  It capsized in a storm on 12 March 1934, shortly after its completion.  This incident forced the IJN to review the stability of all recently completed, under construction and planned ships.  It was salvaged and put back into service after extensive modifications.  During World War II, the "Tomozuru" fought in the Battle of the Philippines and in the Dutch East Indies campaign as an escort, and it continued to play that role for the rest of the war. A layout boat is a low-profile un-motorized oval-like boat that is used by diver duck hunters to hide in when hunting in open water.  They are unique to a specialized form of waterfowl hunting called Layout hunting.  Most layout boats are used for diver duck or ocean duck hunting where open deep water waterfowl species frequent.  Sometimes they are deployed in marshes for more traditional puddle duck hunting or goose hunting.  Layout boats come in designs such as pumpkin seed, oval, box like just to name a few.  They come in one- and two-man models.  These boats are painted to match the color of the water and sit very low in the water.  The main focus of the layout boat is to put the hunter very close to the decoys if not in them for additional concealment.  This makes for very dramatic hunting scenarios where a decoying bird comes extremely close to the hunter and boat.  They are used to target diver ducks such as bluebills (greater scaup), canvasback, goldeneye, scoters and eider to name a few.  This is because divers often fly low on the water and will not notice the low sides of the boat.  Layout boats are often placed within the decoy spread, so the decoys help further conceal the sides of the boat. The Dutch East Indies Campaign of 1941–42 was the conquest of the Dutch East Indies (present-day Indonesia) by forces from the Empire of Japan in the early days of the Pacific Campaign of World War II.  Forces from the Allies attempted unsuccessfully to defend the islands.  The East Indies were targeted by the Japanese for their rich oil resources which would become a vital asset during the war.  The campaign and subsequent three and a half year Japanese occupation was also a major factor in the end of Dutch colonial rule in the region. The 48th Army was a field army of the Soviet Red Army, active from 1941 to 1945.  The army was first formed in August 1941 and fought in the Leningrad Strategic Defensive Operation.  The army suffered heavy losses and was disbanded in early September.  Its remnants were moved to the 54th Army.  Reformed in April 1942 on the Bryansk Front, the army fought in the Maloarkhangelsk Offensive in the winter of 1943.  It was sent to the Central Front in March and defended the northern face of the Kursk Bulge.  During the summer, it fought in Operation Kutuzov and the Chernigov-Pripyat Offensive.  From November, the army fought in the Gomel-Rechitsa Offensive.  The army fought in Operation Bagration from June 1944.  During the offensive, the army captured Zhlobin and Bobruisk and was on the Narew by early September.  During early 1945, the army fought in the East Prussian Offensive and ended the war in East Prussia during May.  The army was transferred to Poland in July 1945 and its headquarters was used to form the Kazan Military District in September.
