Australian Navy’s HMAS Anzac has arrived in Port Louis, Mauritius, the last foreign port of her NORTHERN TRIDENT deployment.
Anzac departed Sydney in March, and has transited the Southern and Indian Oceans, the Red Sea, Suez Canal, the Mediterranean Sea and the North and South Atlantic en route to Port Louis.
The ship has represented Australia at Centenary of Anzac events in the Sea of Marmara, Cape Helles, Gallipoli, Italy, Malta and South Africa, along with D-Day commemorations at Normandy.
This visit provides opportunity for the maritime forces of both Indian Ocean nations to work more closely together, and HMAS Anzac will host a ‘Women in Uniform’ mentoring session, providing an opportunity to share experiences between uniformed women from both nations. Members of Anzac’s crew will also participate in a sporting afternoon with the Mauritius Coast Guard.
