It was an eerie and sombre scene, a grey warship beneath a leaden sky with the occasional drop of rain falling. |

He is the only junior rating to have a warship named for him, the Collins class submarine HMAS Sheean. |
It was the law of the sea that the warship responded in kind by running up her own colours and identity. |
The cheerful officer takes over the station, just as a rogue Minbari warship comes looking for trouble. |
