  • روي دولينج (بالإنجليزية: Roy Dowling)‏ هو عسكري أسترالي، ولد في 28 مايو 1901 في نيوساوث ويلز في أستراليا، وتوفي في 15 أبريل 1969 في كانبرا في أستراليا بسبب نوبة قلبية. (ar)
  • Sir Roy Russell Dowling KCVO, KBE, CB, DSO (* 28. Mai 1901 in , New South Wales, Australien; † 15. April 1969 in Canberra) war ein Offizier der Royal Australian Navy (RAN). Er diente zwischen 1955 und 1959 als (Chef des Marinestabes, CNS) und von 1959 bis 1961 als Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff Committee (Vorsitzender des Stabschefskomitee, COSC), dem Vorläufer des heutigen . Dowling trat 1915 in das ein. Nach seinem Abschluss im Jahr 1919 tat er auf mehreren Schiffen der britischen Royal Navy und der RAN Dienst, wo er später zum Artilleriespezialisten ausgebildet wurde. 1937 erhielt er das Kommando über die Sloop HMAS Swan. Nach Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkriegs diente er auf der britischen HMS Naiad im Mittelmeer als Executive Officer und überlebte deren Versenkung durch ein deutsches U-Boot im März 1942. Nach seiner Rückkehr nach Australien dienste er als Director of Plans und später als Deputy Chief of Naval Staff (Stellvertretender Chef des Marinestabes), bevor er im November 1944 das Kommando über den Leichten Kreuzer HMAS Hobart erhielt. Für seine Leistungen auf dem südwestpazifischen Kriegsschauplatz erhielt er den Distinguished Service Order. Nach Kriegsende erhielt Dowling 1948 das Kommando über den ersten Flugzeugträger der RAN, die HMAS Sydney. 1950 wurde er Chief of Naval Personnel (Chief des Marinepersonalamts) und 1953 (Kommandierender Flaggoffizier HM Australian Fleet). Kurz nach seiner Berufung zum CNS im Februar 1955 wurde er zum Vice Admiral (Vizeadmiral) befördert und mit dem Order of Bath ausgezeichnet. Als CNS hatte er mit einem knappen Finanzbudget sowie Engpässen bei Personal und Ausrüstung zu kämpfen. Eine weitere Herausforderung stellte die zunehmend enge Einbindung der Vereinigten Staaten in die australische Verteidigungsplanungen dar, die zu Lasten der traditionell engen militärischen Bindungen an das Vereinigte Königreich ging. Im Jahr 1957 als Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire ausgezeichnet, wurde Dowling im März 1959 zum COSC, was er bis zu seiner Versetzung in den Ruhestand im Mai 1961 blieb. Im Jahr 1963 wurde er Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order und australischer Minister bei Königin Elisabeth II. Diesen Posten hielt er bis zu seinem Tod im April 1969. (de)
  • Vice Admiral Sir Roy Russell Dowling, KCVO, KBE, CB, DSO (28 May 1901 – 15 April 1969) was a senior commander in the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). He served as Chief of Naval Staff (CNS), the RAN's highest-ranking position, from 1955 until 1959, and as Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff Committee (COSC), forerunner of the role of Australia's Chief of the Defence Force, from 1959 until 1961. Born in northern New South Wales, Dowling entered the Royal Australian Naval College in 1915. After graduating in 1919 he went to sea aboard several Royal Navy and RAN vessels, and later specialised in gunnery. In 1937, he was given command of the sloop HMAS Swan. Following the outbreak of World War II, he saw action in the Mediterranean theatre as executive officer of the Royal Navy cruiser HMS Naiad, and survived her sinking by a German U-boat in March 1942. Returning to Australia, he served as Director of Plans and later Deputy Chief of Naval Staff before taking command of the light cruiser HMAS Hobart in November 1944. His achievements in the South West Pacific earned him the Distinguished Service Order. Dowling took command of the RAN's first aircraft carrier, HMAS Sydney, in 1948. He became Chief of Naval Personnel in 1950, and Flag Officer Commanding HM Australian Fleet in 1953. Soon after taking up the position of CNS in February 1955, he was promoted to vice admiral and appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath. As CNS he had to deal with shortages of money, manpower and equipment, and with the increasing role of the United States in Australia's defence planning, at the expense of traditional ties with Britain. Knighted in 1957, Dowling was Chairman of COSC from March 1959 until May 1961, when he retired from the military. In 1963 he was appointed a Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order and became Australian Secretary to Queen Elizabeth II, serving until his death in 1969. (en)
