Putting the 'War' Back Into Minor War Vessels: Utilising the Arafura Class
Tac Talks Issue: 18 | 2021 Putting the ‘War’ back into Minor War Vessels: utilising the Arafura Class to reinvigorate high intensity warfighting in the Patrol Force By LEUT Brett Willis Tac Talks © Commonwealth of Australia 2021 This work is copyright.

Tac Talks Introduction It is a curious statistic of the First World War that more sailors and officers were killed in action on Minor War Vessels than on Major Fleet Units in all navies involved in the conflict. For a war synonymous with the Dreadnought arms race and the clash of Battleships at Jutland the gunboats of the Edwardian age proved to be the predominant weapon of naval warfare. These vessels, largely charged with constabulary duties pre-war, were quickly pressed into combat and played a critical role in a number of theatres rarely visited in the histories of WWI. I draw attention to this deliberately for the purpose of this article is to advocate for the exploitation of the current moment of change in the RAN Patrol Boat Group and configure it to better confront the very real possibility of a constabulary force being pressed into combat. This article will demonstrate that prior planning & training will create a lethal Patrol Group that poses a credible threat to all surface combatants by integrating guided weapons onto the Arafura Class. -

Compass No 396 | September 2015
COMPASS NO 396 | SEPTEMBER 2015 Voices of Hope When we think back over history and identify those who were able to lead others forward, the voices that made a difference were those who could identify a better future and communicate a message of hope. Napoleon Bonaparte captured this in his phrase, ‘Leaders are dealers in hope’. We are drawn to follow those who can inspire a sense of a better future. This does not involve having a ‘Pollyanna’ approach to life. We look to those who engage in the messiness of life, recognise issues to be resolved and have the capacity to share and engage in a hope-filled way forward. Jesus is and was a great hope giver. He lived the messiness of human life and suffered great pain for us, so that we might have the hope of eternal life. His voice was one of hope and offered better ways for humanity to live. His two great commandments were that we love God with all our heart and we love our neighbour as ourselves. As we lead ourselves, our families, our co-workers and community members we pray for the wisdom to lead in a hope-filled way. ……………………………………………………….……………………………………………………………………………… Principal’s Log As we draw to the end of the term, we celebrate all that has been achieved and the growth that has been supported. Through engagement with academic learning, cultural experiences, sporting activities, outdoor education experiences, community events and the devotional life of the college, we have all grown through the benefit of being part of a community committed to shaping better futures.
