    Default HMAS Sydney Unknown Sailor Identified

    Amazing...80 years on. Lest We Forget.



    HMAS Sydney History.

    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

    Sad also for the perspective that, until identified, he could have been any one of those that perished and the families could have held onto the belief that their family member had been recovered and buried.

    It is a relief for all concerned. At least those families now have some closure.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...
