Sunken German war ship found off Australia

A search for a Australian ship lost during WWII has found the German vessel that sunk it. The German ship was the DKM Kormoran. The Aussie ship was the HMAS Sydney. The HMAS Sydney, with her sinking with all hands represents the greatest ever loss of life in an Australian warship; Sydney was also the largest vessel of any country to be lost with no survivors during the war. The crew had 645 members. You can read the full story here of the finding of the DKM Kormoran. Search for the HMAS Sydney continues.
