RAN 50th anniversary
As seen from the bridge of HMAS Parramatta. Technically she wasn't HMAS- flying the red ensign she was still three weeks from commissioning which put her to the rear of the formation. As well as her new crew she carried a number of spectators notably Cockatoo Island personnel which is how we come to have this!
She is preceded by HMAS Quickmatch (F04), Quiberon, Vampire, Voyager and Melbourne. In the van were two RN T class submarines.
