Able Sea. Albert James Day
Royal Australian Navy HMAS Melbourne

An extract from a letter from Commonwealth of Australia, Department of the Navy, Victoria Barracks 18th May 1967, re my dad, Albert Day to his sister, "The ship in which your late brother took passage is unfortunately not remarked on his personal service record. However it is noted that on the day of his departure, i.e., 8th August, 1917, H.M.A Transport Anchises departed Sydney bound for England carrying Australian troop and a number of Royal Australian Navy sailors. There seems to be little doubt therefore that the Anchises was the ship in question."
