THE SLOPS VAN

Oz Submarine Shop

The Slops Van is your online shop for Australian Submarine merchandise. 

All items are top quality and can be sent anywhere. So browse around and then go to the order form at the bottom of the page to place your order online.

Slops, a term referring to naval clothing stores, is derived from the Old English sloppe - a loose fitting and shapeless garment. Very basic slops were provided in the Royal Navy since 1632. These were offered by civilian tradesmen, slop-sellers as they were called, and were more readily patronised than the naval stores.

HMAS SYDNEY - DVD 

The wreckage of HMAS Sydney, sunk off the West Australian coast in 1941, has at last been found. The Sydney's entire crew of 645 went down with the ship in the Indian Ocean and its location has been a mystery for 66 years. The DVD of “The Hunt for HMAS Sydney”, a documentary of this momentous discovery, was screened on ABC TV on 1st April and followed by this priority DVD release.

The DVD includes the history of the Sydney and German raider Kormoran, along with interviews with bereaved family members, naval personnel, historians, and those who have made the search happen with their determination to bring closure. It will also include an animated segment showing the battle between the rival ships based on evidence gleaned from German survivors.

The Navy and the Nation 
Edited by David Stevens and John Reeve
A history of the Australian navy focusing on the contribution of the RAN in peace and war to Australia's development and the potential it has to continue this into the future.

Australia has often been described as a nation shaped by war. From an early age, every Australian is taught the significance of Gallipoli and the Anzac legend. This, however, is but one dimension of the military's impact on our nation's coming of age. Australia, after all, is an island. It was the Navy which explored and founded European Australia, and it is the Navy which has ever since been critical to our national security.
