Navy League of Australia
The Navy League of Australia is an Australian organisation and
The Navy League of Australia was established in November 1900 as the Australian branch of the United Kingdom Navy League.[1] State-level sub-branches were combined under a federal body in 1939, and in 1950, the Navy League of Australia began to operate independently of its British parent.[1][2]
The organisation's main aims are to promote the ideas of a strong navy and merchant navy to Australian people, politicians, and the media, support organisations and industries that work towards improving and maintaining the maritime and defence industries, and promoting an interest in maritime matters.
A quarterly journal titled The Navy has been published continuously by the Navy League of Australia since 1938, with a predecessor publication published between 1920 and 1932.[5]
