HMAS Penguin (naval base)
HMAS ''Penguin'' is a shore establishment of the Royal Australian Navy located at Balmoral on the shore of Sydney Harbour in the suburb of Mosman, New South Wales. ''Penguin'' is one of the RAN's primary training establishments, with a responsibility for providing trained specialists for all areas of the navy.
==History==
''Penguin'' was initially established as the Balmoral Naval Depot and was also known as ''Penguin II'' in 1941 as a depot for the RAN's main naval base at Garden Island (on Sydney Harbour). In addition to accommodation for 700 personnel, as well as all the necessary administrative facilities, the Balmoral Naval Hospital was built on the site. ''Penguin II'' was commissioned in July 1942, and was renamed as simply HMAS ''Penguin'' in January 1943, when the Garden Island facility was renamed HMAS ''Kuttabul''. In addition to its role as a depot, ''Penguin'' served as a base for the motor launches responsible for patrolling Sydney Harbour.
After the end of World War II, ''Penguin'' began its service as a training establishment. The RAN Seamanship School was located at ''Penguin'' from 1945 to 1974, while from 1951 to 1954 it was the Navy's National Service Recruit School. ''Penguin'' has also played host to the RAN Staff College and the Security and Naval Police Coxswains School. In addition, a number of operational units of the RAN have been based at ''Penguin'', including Clearance Diving Teams One and Two, and the Royal Navy's Fourth Submarine Squadron.
