HMAS Adelaide



Special cover for the medical evacuation of civilian sailor by the crew HMAS Adelaide on 10 May 2007.

Cover with Australian stamp and canceled with HMAS Adelaide Commanding Officer postmark on rescue date.



HMAS Adelaide (FFG 01) was the lead ship of the Adelaide class of guided missile frigates built for the Royal Australian Navy, based on the United States Navy's Oliver Hazard Perry class frigates. She was built in the United States of America and commissioned into the RAN in 1980.

Would love to get my hands on the FDC.
