The Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) has conducted a memorial service for the families of the 10 crew members of RAAF No. 11 Squadron Catalina A24-50 who perished on a war-time mission 78 years ago.
In honour of the lost aviators, a No. 11 Squadron P-8A Poseidon flypast opened the commemoration held at the Catalina Memorial on the Cairns Esplanade.
Catalina A24-50 was reported missing on 2 September 1943 while on a sea-mining operation to Sorong, in occupied Dutch New Guinea. Initial searches found no sign of the aircraft, however in April 2018 it was finally located at Fakfak in Papua, Indonesia.

This idea was further compounded when a man with 40 years of experience with the Australian Defence Force confirmed he had never seen anything like it.
Ray Martin wrote on Twitter: In 40 years in the ADF, with eight Prime Ministers during that time, never saw one receive a red carpet and an honour guard for an internal visit to a base.
Until now. Did I miss one?
