Captain P C Adelus of the Marine Nationale's FR AMIRAL CHARNER at a reception

  Per the digitised newspapers a civic reception for Captain Aldus and the officers of the Amiral Charner was held at Sydney Town Hall on 29th November, 1934. I'd say this is the occasion/location. trove.nla.gov.au/work/183006744 - NLA Fairfax pic of conductor Sir Hamilton Harty taken at a reception held at Sydney Town Hall...looks to be the same venue.

  According to ecole.nav.traditions.free.fr/officiers_petit_louis.htm, Louis Jules Petit (1865 - ?) was commander of the Amiral Aube from September 1916 until December 1918.

• Art Siegel said:

  A detailed account of the Aube and her arrival in New York on May 1, 1917 in the New York Evening Telegram, mentions "Capt. G. Petit", a typo. fultonhistory.com/Newspapers%206/New%20York%20NY%20Evenin...

• Pete (LOC P&P) said:

  B-59: thanks for finding more information on Capt. Petit. We will include it in the record.
