Departing Victoria Quay, Fremantle on Armistice Day, 11 November 1941, HMAS Sydney (II) was tasked with escorting the troop ship Zealandia for some of its journey to Singapore.
When she had not returned by 23 November, the concerned Naval board signalled her. There was no reply.
November 2021 marks the 80th anniversary of the sinking of HMAS Sydney, the largest loss of Australian life in the Royal Australian Navy. We commemorate this by following the story of this mighty ship, and her discovery in 2008.
