The Scrap Iron Flotilla was an Australian destroyer group that operated in the Mediterranean and Pacific during World War II. The name was bestowed upon the group by Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels. The story of the ships in the flotilla, up to 1943, was recounted in the book Scrap-Iron Flotilla by John F. Moyes, who served as a Sub-Lieutenant RANVR on HMAS Voyager later in the war, and collected many stories from the crews. Moyes was on HMAS Voyager when she was sunk, but survived.

  • La Flottille de ferraille (en anglais : Scrap Iron Flotilla) était un groupe de destroyers australiens qui a opéré en mer Méditerranée et dans l’océan Pacifique pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Le nom de flottille de ferraille a été attribué au groupe par le ministre de la Propagande nazie, Joseph Goebbels. La flottille se composait de cinq destroyers de la Royal Australian Navy (RAN). Ces cinq navires avaient été construits pendant la Première Guerre mondiale et avaient servi avec la Royal Navy, qui les avait transférés à la RAN dans les années 1930. Le HMAS Waterhen (D22) a été coulé en Méditerranée en 1941, le HMAS Vampire (D68) a été coulé dans l’océan Indien en 1942 et le HMAS Voyager (D31) a été coulé près de Timor en 1942. Seuls le HMAS Stuart (D00) et le HMAS Vendetta (D69) ont survécu à la guerre. L’histoire des navires de la flottille, jusqu’en 1943, a été racontée dans le livre Scrap-Iron Flotilla par John F. Moyes, qui a servi comme sous-lieutenant de la Royal Australian Naval Volunteer Reserve (RANVR) sur le HMAS Voyager plus tard dans la guerre, et a recueilli de nombreuses histoires auprès des équipages. Le sous-lieutenant Moyes était à bord du HMAS Voyager lorsqu’il a été coulé, mais il a survécu au naufrage. (fr)
