HMAS Yarra (U77)
HMAS ''Yarra'' (U77), named for the Yarra River, was a sloop of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) that served during World War II. Commissioned in 1936, ''Yarra'' spent the early part of the war in Australian waters, then was transferred to the East Indies Station in 1940. The sloop operated in the Red Sea, then was involved in the Anglo-Iraqi War and the Anglo-Soviet invasion of Iran. After operating as part of the Tobruk Ferry Service in the Mediterranean during November, ''Yarra'' was reassigned to Southeast Asia in response to Japanese attacks. On 4 March 1942, ''Yarra'' was attacked and sunk by a force of Japanese cruisers and destroyers while attempting to protect ships withdrawing to Australia.
