Preserving Australia's Naval History
AE2 – Stoker’s Submarine, composed by Lieutenant Matthew Klohs RAN is performed by the Royal Australian Navy Band with narrative by Mr Mike Carlton.
It was composed to commemorate the Centenary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War One.
The painting of HMAS Warramunga reflects a major article in this edition which provides a potted history of the RAN in the Korean War. The images of HMAS Adelaide reference the article about Adelaide’s Boarding party. It was only resourceful action by the ship’s helicopter, directed by the Flight Commander, that enabled the Boarding Party to be safely recovered, thereby averting an international incident.
