Well done

Do you do the new version too?

BTW, wasn't the pennant number D84?

That full one was intended for the HMAS AUSTRALIA (III), which we never bought. It will be used for the future ships called AUSTRALIA. Yes it was 84, I had it round the wrong way

that's the Sydney instead.

HMAS HOBART (I)

the real D48, HMAS SYDNEY (II)

(I'll clean up the "D" but I think I'm beginning to warm to the task of writing the text)

I take but I surrender? Isn't that exactly the opposite message you want?

I know, its a bit odd, but very true when it came to her mortal battle with the Kormoran

It's a real pleasure for me that you're encouraged to do the RAN justice with the badge making. Being an "aussie" you may have better sources than me but I wonder why the RAN on their official homepage over historic ships shows the full CoA for HMAS Australia (II)? The reason I ask is that it then will be hard for others to do the right badges for the older RAN vessels

I divulge that almost all of my references come from the RAN history site but I do some reading into the badges from other sites before coming to a conclusion. I am slightly concerned as well thought they show the much different CoA on the Australia(I)'s tampions. Most are correct (except and Australia & Huon I think) so it is a relatively credible source.

My one ask is, the RAN category is now is the second largest category (after Germany) without a separate page, I suppose we'll get a separate page sonnish?

As I wrote on page 21, when a nation reach approximately 10 badges I then will create a nation thread. The reason I haven't done that for Germany yet is I haven't had the time to get enough in their badge history and also is considering if I should let the badges of Deutsche Kriegsmarine in a seperate thread of political reasons

Ah, I see. I do apologize for not researching that!

Will do happily

I very much like you work on the RAN badge, hopefully it will bring in more artists to help!
