In 1962, the area was commissioned as a base of the RAN, and became home to the RAN's mine warfare forces. Waterhen was the first small-ship base established by the RAN, and from 1969 to 1979 was also responsible for the RAN's patrol boat forces.

  • La Base navale de Waterhen (en anglais : HMAS Waterhen) de la marine royale australienne(RAN) est située à Waverton, dans la banlieue de Sydney. Construite sur le site d'une carrière utilisée pour étendre Garden Island dans les années 1930, l'emplacement a été utilisé durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale comme zone d'entretien et de stockage. En 1962, la zone a été considérée comme base de la RAN, et est devenue la caserne pour les équipages des dragueurs de mines. Elle a été la première base à recevoir les petits navires de la RAN et, entre 1969 à 1979 a aussi reçu les navires de patrouille. (fr)
