Garry E. Hall as commander of Combined Task Force (CTF) 158 during a ceremony at Naval Support Activity Bahrain Sept. 27. Command of CTF 158 typically rotates among coalition partners Australia, United Kingdom and the United States. CTF 158 is comprised of coalition ships and its primary mission in the Persian Gulf is Maritime Security Operations (MSO) in and around both the Al Basrah and Khawr Al Amaya Oil Terminals (ABOT and KAAOT, respectively), in support of U.N. Security Council Resolution 1723. This resolution charges the multinational force with the responsibility and authority to maintain security and stability in Iraqi territorial waters and also supports the Iraqi government's request for security support. Additionally, under the training and leadership of CTF 158, Iraqi marines aboard ABOT and KAAOT train with the coalition in order to eventually assume responsibility for security. “I am honored to have been in command of this task force,” said Hall. “The coalition forces have done an excellent job of providing security to the oil platforms and training the Iraqi forces.” “I am very proud of the coalition forces and my staff in supporting the CTF 158 mission,” said Capt.

We Envy No Man on Earth Because We Fly. the Australian Fleet Air
We Envy No Man On Earth Because We Fly. The Australian Fleet Air Arm: A Comparative Operational Study. This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Murdoch University 2016 Sharron Lee Spargo BA (Hons) Murdoch University I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. …………………………………………………………………………….. Abstract This thesis examines a small component of the Australian Navy, the Fleet Air Arm. Naval aviators have been contributing to Australian military history since 1914 but they remain relatively unheard of in the wider community and in some instances, in Australian military circles. Aviation within the maritime environment was, and remains, a versatile weapon in any modern navy but the struggle to initiate an aviation branch within the Royal Australian Navy was a protracted one. Finally coming into existence in 1947, the Australian Fleet Air Arm operated from the largest of all naval vessels in the post battle ship era; aircraft carriers. HMAS Albatross, Sydney, Vengeance and Melbourne carried, operated and fully maintained various fixed-wing aircraft and the naval personnel needed for operational deployments until 1982. These deployments included contributions to national and multinational combat, peacekeeping and humanitarian operations. With the Australian government’s decision not to replace the last of the aging aircraft carriers, HMAS Melbourne, in 1982, the survival of the Australian Fleet Air Arm, and its highly trained personnel, was in grave doubt. This was a major turning point for Australian Naval Aviation; these versatile flyers and the maintenance and technical crews who supported them retrained on rotary aircraft, or helicopters, and adapted to flight operations utilising small compact ships.

Issue 40, April 2020
From the President As the world plunges deeper into pandemic tragedy Naval Historical Society volunteers will do their utmost to continue services as best, they can. With many volunteers used to working remotely, eighty percent of our services are unaffected. However, closure of our office and cessation of Garden Island history tours will cause financial stress and some delay in mailing products to our valued customers. On the bright side, it is a pleasure to bring you our 40th edition of Call the Hands. This edition has a focus on catapult launched naval aircraft and their operation by R.A.A.F. personnel of No. 9 Squadron between 1935 and 1949. There is a significant amount of detail in the interesting ‘video of the month’ on cruiser launch and recovery operations as well as a table detailing the fate of various Seagull V aircraft operated by No. 9 Squadron. A number of whom lost their lives at sea in support of naval operations. Three occasional papers accompany this edition of Call the Hands. OP 75 on RAN involvement in the Vietnam War coincides with the 45th anniversary of the end of that War on 20 April 1975. Our thanks to Captain Ralph T. Derbidge MBE RAN Rtd for providing the paper. The second paper by Greg Swinden looks at the impact of the Spanish Influenza Epidemic of 1918-19 on the RAN. OP 76 by Dennis Weatherall examines the development and operations of HMAS Assault as an amphibious operations training establishment during WW2. If you have a previously unpublished paper of interest to fellow readers and wish to share it, we would like to hear from you.

Call the Hands
CALL THE HANDS Issue No.22 Aug 2018 From the President Welcome to this August 2018 edition of Call the Hands and accompanying Occasional Papers. I trust you will find them interesting. The occasional paper on HMAS Voyager (I) paint schemes is interesting as this subject is not regularly addressed by naval historians. The paper highlights the significant effort expended on the science of camouflage during World War 2. For those with a deeper interest in paint, the additional reading on Royal Navy paint schemes during WW2 demonstrates the passion of ships modelers and others researching a subject for which few primary sources remain. I am most grateful for readers’ feedback, particularly when they have been personally involved in an event. The short article in July on the RAN Helicopter Flight in Vietnam was an example, as was the 1955 date HMA Ships Arunta and Warramunga were dispatched to Singapore on the first permanent deployment of naval forces in South-East Asia. The latter also highlights the Society’s` need for more volunteers to maintain contemporary records. History is being created on a daily basis. We are fortunate to have several volunteers assisting from afar over the internet but we have a current need for new volunteers in our Garden Island office to maintain regular services. To this end we would be pleased to hear from Sydney based readers with time to give (one or two days a week or fortnight). We are flexible. There is a range of important roles to interest you. You don’t need to be a historian, just motivated to join a great team.

Accompanying this edition is Occasional Paper 8, ‘The Gustavo Stefanini Story’.
