Walrus Mk I Seaplane L2177 on approach to HMAS Sydney for recovery by the ship's crane in late 1941, somewhere in Australian Waters, possibly off South Australia. This photo shows Ray Barrey in the cockpit taxing the Aircraft, while the Naval Observer Jack Bacon RN assists the Aircrews TAG sitting on the top wing waiting for the crane to lower the hook which he had to catch and hook up to the wing so it could then be winched onboard. In view on the deck of HMAS Sydney is a Carley Float in its stowed position, while Looking on are a RAN Petty Officer and a RAAF Member of the crew. It is believed that this Photo was taken by LAC Keith Homard RAAF, who was a former Newcastle Press Photographer now part of HMAS Sydney's RAAF Detachment as the Reconnaissance Photograph Section's Commander.
