The sinking of the Hospital Ship Centaur

On this day in 1943, the 2/3rd Australian Hospital Ship (AHS) Centaur was en route from Sydney to Cairns when it was sunk by a Japanese submarine south of Moreton Island, off the Queensland coast.
Of the 332 people on board, only 64 survived.

Today we honour the memory of those who lost their lives on the Centaur and pay tribute to the survivors and their families.

Lest we forget.

The Mackay Veteran Support Group was privileged to be invited by the Mackay Cutters to conduct a ANZAC Day service prior to the Cutters V Ipswich Jets Rugby League Team
Our Bugler Liam 🎺 was outstanding after backing up from the main ANZAC Day service.
Represented by our President Les Palmer and committee. Unfortunately the Cutters were not successful but it was great to see the local boys putting in.
