The Emden and HMAS Sydney - an Australian perspective by Mike Carlton
Posted on November 10, 2013 at 3:45 PM |

"On the morning of October 4, 1913, Sydney Harbour was lined with
thousands of Australians eager to catch their first glimpse of the Royal
Australian Navy.As the battlecruiser HMAS Australia, cruisers
Melbourne, Sydney and Encounter, and destroyers Warrego, Parramatta and
Yarra sailed into the Harbour for the first time, it marked a key moment
in Australian defence history.The Royal Australian Navy, long years in
the making, had arrived to make its mark."
Mike Carlton, journalist and historian, gives an Australian perspective on the battle which took place on November 9, 1914 in his book "First Victory 1914" published by Random House - And at last month's International Fleet Review in Sydney Harbour, HMAS Sydney lV took a major role in the Naval centenary commemorations - the differences between the 1913 vessel and its current namesake are examined by Lincoln Archer and Daniel Franklin - Image courtesy Australian War Memorial and Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:HMAS_Sydney_1914_AWM_EN0194.jpg |
