Memorial Window Description & History
Stained Glass Window at Crib Point HMAS Cerberus Flinders Naval Depot Anglican Chapel - Memorial Window Description & History
Stained glass artist, David Taylor Kellock (1913-1988),depicteda seaman at the helm, with Christ at his shoulder pointing the way forward. The only inscription was the small section of the ship's insignia and the word 'Yarra', at the top of the window. HMAS Yarra was named after Melbourne's major river, a Grimsby class sloop commissioned at Cockatoo Island, Sydney in 1936. It received battle honours for service in Libya 1941, where it formed part of the vital Tobruk Ferry Service, and then the East Indies in 1942. It was re-assigned to Southeast Asia after the Japanese entered the war and undertook sterling duty escorting convoys, including the last to enter Singapore before that island was captured in February 1942. It was sunk by Japanese cruisers on 4 March 1942 with only a handful of survivors. In March 2013, the Governor-General of Australia , Quentin Bryce announced a Unit Citation for Gallantry would be awarded to the ship's company at the time of the sinking.
