During the five day visit, the ship will be involved in a number of events designed to maintain the special bond Navy enjoys with the residents of Brisbane.“As the third Royal Australian Navy ship to carry the Brisbane name, we are very keen to build on the rapport and support that the previous two ships shared with the people of Brisbane.“With around 20 Brisbane locals serving as crew members on my ship, our first visit to their home town will be especially important,” Commander Wilson said.Commander of the Australian Fleet, Rear Admiral Jonathan Mead said HMAS “This ship is among the most potent warships in the world and forms an essential part of the defence of our nation.“Ships that have carried the name Brisbane have an honoured history in the Royal Australian Navy.With the motto, ‘Aim at Higher Things’, I am confident all who sail in her will realise the incredible potential she represents,” Rear Admiral Mead said.

HMAS Brisbane returning to Sydney after a 5 month deployment. #steelcat #fighting41 October 27, 2018. The Steel Cat had its first marriage proposal on board! Sadly, in both cases, and others identified in this narrative, many have crossed the bar.I was the overnight Duty Executive Officer on the Friday night of that first week onboard and aware I was to attend with my wife with other guests a dinner party on the following night in the Wardroom, to be hosted by Captain Stevens and his wife.On the Saturday morning, well before ‘Call the Hands’, I was abruptly shaken by a very agitated Duty Petty Officer who blurted out, “They’ve broken into the Beer Store!”.Still half-asleep, I asked “Who, what, where, when?” not having any idea where the Beer Store was at the time.I dressed quickly and followed the PO down to the after Stokers’ Mess where I found duty watch bodies and others in all states of undress, asleep in all manner of positions and places and many snoring loudly.
Damage control training and first aid exercises are key to fighting and winning at sea. #steelcat #fighting41 #lestweforget At the subsequent assizes, when the Captain was very lenient overall, the guilty showed little contrition for purloining the beer but were most remorseful over misappropriating the Captain’s desserts.For a while there onboard, the Stokers were not top of my hit parade but a few G & Ts from the then MEOs, the irrepressible Warwick Robinson* and the laconic Ian Watson, placated me and all was soon forgiven.And so the ship sailed for a shakedown in the East Australia Exercise Area (EAXA) at the end of the maintenance period, with many new personnel embarked following the return from the 1969 Vietnam deployment. I replied that there must be another ship in the exercise area perhaps firing HE shells at a surface target.The Captain seemingly bought this at the time. And... She said yes!
