HMAS Armidale

In Armidale, a city fair, Two ships were named with love and care. The Royal Australian Navy's pride, Sailing the seas, side by side. First came a corvette, strong and bold, HMAS Armidale, we are told. Launched in '42, a ship so grand, But alas, it sunk in enemy's hand. A patrol boat was to be the next, Armidale, a name they would inflect. But construction ceased, a sad affair, No Fremantle-class ship to sail out there. Then came the Armidale-class patrol boat, HMAS Armidale, to stay afloat. Commissioned in '05, a ship so fine, Sailing the seas, it's duty's sign. So let us remember these ships of fame, HMAS Armidale, they bear the name. A tribute to a city fair and true, Sailing the oceans, in red, white, and blue. Random page: No-Execute bit
