Naval Inquiry Probes Melbourne Evans Collision
Joint board of inquiry in Subic Bay examined the Melbourne Evans collision as US and Royal Australian navies faced questions on efficiency. Commander Arundel testified that the destroyer’s planning lacked a stated termination time and questioned how often it would be deployed as plane-guard. Witnesses noted Australian operators trained in communications, with coins from a Dutch ship’s wreck cited as evidence in Perth. The inquiry reviewed tactical responses and the pace of reaction to orders during the incident.

At Subic Bay, a board of inquiry cited two Australian sailors for acts of courage during the Melbourne and Evans collision. Lieutenant Robert Burns dived from the Melbourne to help a sailor from the Evans, while Chief Aircraft Handler S. R. Heares assisted survivors on the Evans stern despite orders to stop.
