    Memorial Window Description & History

    Stained Glass Window at Crib Point HMAS Cerberus Flinders Naval Depot Anglican Chapel - Memorial Window Description & History

    This, the right-hand window in the group forming a three-light window in the south wall of the chapel, has similarities with the left-hand light, a tribute to HMAS Yarra, also designed by David Taylor Kellock (1913-1988).The subject appears to be a saintly figure protecting a young man (a naval midshipman or a sea scout maybe?) depicted in much the same manner as Christ in the left-hand light. According to the list of windows and memorials in the Chapel of St. Mark, it is a memorial to HMAS Parramatta. It was the second of four RAN ships by this name, a Grimsby class sloop (as was the Yarra) that operated in the Red Sea and Mediterranean during the Second World War until it was sunk off Tobruk on 27 November 1941 by the German submarine U559.
