    At the same time though, the lettering on the bow, admittedly very obscured doesn't look like the tops of the word "Moreno" to my admittedly bad eyes. Looks perhaps like a "YA" in the middle?

    It clearly says Rivadavia. First president of Argentina, and future name of the battleship.

    The Rivadavia features here as well

    From the tall buildings behind, this must be the July 1928 visit. Moored at P&O wharf, Bennelong Point, where the Opera House is now. Read All About It - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16478526 Captain Geronimo Costa Palma - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16479223

    The SLNSW have an image supposedly showing the PRESIDENTE SARMIENTO with the Harbour Bridge in the background, ie later than 1932 - strange !? - acms.sl.nsw.gov.au//item/itemDetailPaged.aspx?itemID=220390
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia Think you're right, we had a hunch that might be the case. That is strange, SLNSW must have the vessel wrong as PRESIDENTE SARMIENTO did not visit Sydney after 1928.

    The light cruiser USS Phoenix (CL-46). Surviving unharmed after the Japanese sneak-attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the ship would serve and fight throughout the Second World War. She would be sold to Argentina in 1951. As the Argentine Navy's ARA General Belgrano (C-4), she would be torpedoed and sunk by Royal Navy nuclear-powered attack submarine HMS Conqueror in May 1982 during the Falkland Islands War.
