  • HMAS Diamantina
    RAAF Radschool Association Magazine – Vol 45 Page 16 HMAS Diamantina. In Perth last year, while we were looking over HMAS Stirling, we couldn’t help noticing the number of times the Navy referred to the old WW2 frigate, the HMAS Diamantina. It seems she was something special and as we live in Brisbane we know where she rests today so we decided it was time we had a look over her, just to see what all the fuss was about. Anyone familiar with Brisbane will also know Southbank which is the Phoenix that arose from the site left vacant when Expo (30 April 1988 – 30 October 1988) wound up. Prior to Expo, that area of Brisbane held old storage and warehouse sheds, dilapidated wooden wharves and at its eastern end, the old South Brisbane Dry Dock. When Expo finished, the site lay vacant for a period while they figured out what to do with the land and eventually they got enough people to agree to a set of plans and today we have the wonderful open area that is extensively used by Brisbanites and visitors every day. But they left the old dry dock. The dock was built in 1876, is 131 metres long and during the war was a strategic asset having provided facilities for the servicing of over a hundred RAN and USN ships. It was finally closed in 1972 and now, as part of the Queensland Maritime Museum, is the final resting place for the 2,120 ton HMAS Diamantina. A couple of years ago, when Brisbane flooded, so did the dock, the Diamantina floated off her chocks and after the two huge centrifugal pumps, which can A RAAF Radschool Association Magazine – Vol 45 Page 16 completely empty the dock in only 3-4 hours, pumped out the water, Diamantina was resettled on new chocks and that’s how she rests today.

  • Call the Hands
    CALL THE HANDS Issue No.35 October 2019 From the President Welcome to this 35th edition of Call the Hands and an Occasional Paper. Occasional Paper 64 looks at the life of the former HMCS Protector to the present. Occasional Paper 65 continues the HMCS Protector theme with coverage of the service of six Protector sailors following their return from the Boxer Rebellion. September and October this year are significant for the 80th Anniversary of the outbreak of WWII in (3 Sept 1939) and the 75th anniversary of Battle of Surigao Strait (23-26 Oct 1944). From a personal perspective I have been profoundly impressed by individual efforts to expand community understanding of Australia Naval history. Two of our not so young Society members continue to make huge personal contributions which supplements Society work. Examples include, Rear Admiral Guy Griffiths Rtd who gave a comprehensive Interview on radio for the WW2 80th anniversary and prior to this, he delivered a presentation to the August ‘Malay at War’ conference in Kuala Lumpur. Another long-standing Society member, David Mattiske has for several years been lobbying the Government of Australia to ensure a significant commitment is made to commemorating the Leyte Gulf battles. David was also instrumental in working with the Australian Embassy and the Philippines Government to install a memorial overlooking the Surigao Straits. We understand DVA and the ADF will make significant contributions to the Leyte anniversary later this month. Like Guy Griffiths, David Mattiske is a WW2 veteran. David was serving in HMAS Shropshire in 1944. The Australian Ambassador to the Philippines, Ms Amanda Gorely, in her 2017 Australia Day address said, ‘Australian David Mattiske was a 17 year old able seaman in the WWII Philippines campaign in the Leyte Gulf and the Battle of Manila Bay.
