A question about Commander Warwick Bracegirdle?

April 12, 2009

Hello,

Could anyone tell me when "Braces" left HMAS Perth and in what port?

But in particular, when??

I am assuming, of course, before she was sunk on March 1, 1942.

Commander Bracegirdle was with the commissioning crew until when...???

I just don't know.

Thanks.
Pattie Wright
