No, the Japanese never landed on or invaded Bathurst Island. Bathurst was, however, the first place to be attacked by the Japanese in an airbourne assault before the bombing of Darwin. Father John McGrath, head of the missionary on Bathurst island, sent radio signals to Darwin warning of the oncoming onslaught of Japanese fighter planes from his signal station next to the church as they flew overhead. The Japanese machine gunned the church and signal station from the air and dropped a bomb on an aircraft in Bathurst Island airfield. They then continued on to Darwin, bombing the city and harbour.
It only took a couple of months to get buildings put up and the airfield made once the Marines and Army reached the airfield of the Japanese. They started resurfacing the airfield at Iwo Jima long before the Japanese were defeated on that island. The Sea Bees were being shot at while they worked on the field. So they managed to get it done within a week or more. There were pilots who landed on that airfield doing emergency landings before they totally completed that runway.
No, the Japanese did not invade Kweilin before the founding of the Joy Luck Club. The Joy Luck Club was founded after World War II, while the Japanese invasion of Kweilin occurred during the Second Sino-Japanese War in 1938.
