Interesting. Also interesting is the comment by one of the sailor’s sons - a moonbat - who thinks the wreck was ‘hidden’ so long by the government, who had something to ‘hide’. Sheeesh.

Her Majesty Assisted Service - still don't understand why Australia still wants to be “under” the Queen in some form.

I hope they leave the dead on board and let them rest in peace undisturbed.

There can’t possibly be remains on board, can there?
Maybe they Nat Geo will do a Battle 360 HMAS Sydney.

I would suspect that very few men actually went down with the ship. Most probably survived and never got picked up.

Western Australia Geraldton H.M.A.S. Sydney Memorial

(the irritating intro to this clip doesn't last long...the story itself is quite respectful and shows the beautiful memorial in appropriate context)

Big news in Australia. I had read on a naval history web site they were looking again for Sydney but I didn't think they would really find her.

Lots of conspiracy theories that the ship was finished off by a Japanese sub and/or survivors were machined gunned by same.

Incredible story as to how the Sydney was found.

Sydney found by joining up German's dots
