    HMAS Voyager - 10 Feburary 1964 Least we forget

    HMAS Voyager was a Daring class destroyer commissioned in 1957. While performing manoeuvres on 10 February 1964, HMAS Voyager collided with the aircraft carrier HMAS Melbourne. HMAS Voyager was cut in two and sank with the loss of 82 lives. The incident remains the Royal Australian Navy's greatest loss of life during peacetime.

    Just watched all the names of the lost but not forgotten.

    Please do not watch if distressed or upset by this. It is respectful from the HMAS Voyager Association


    4 more days to go and 81 sailor and a dockyard engineer lost their life in the sinking of HMAS VOYAGER in night excercises with HMAS MELBOURNE on the 10th of February 1964 | By HMAS Voyager Survivors Association


    Video is from the Shrine of Remembrance Service today
