The report of 60 years ago makes delightful reading.....We have heard of no accident, says The Argus reporter, "save that which happened to the Naval Brigade man named Rose, whose hat was shot in two by a rear rank man without the discharge hurting him." The Argus, 3 March 1923


* 1853 is given as the commencement date for the Victorian Navy as this is the year that Commander Lockyer (RN) went to Britain to superintend the building of HMCS Victoria.
Although the Victorian Navy ended in 1901 the career of Cerbeus etc continued. In 1910 the new ships started arriving & manning levels increased.

Information & photographs of men who served in the Victorian Naval Forces is eagerly sought. Please contact the webmaster.
