I love the names given to RAN ships - HMAS Wollongong is a particular favourite!!

A lot of the individual ships' histories are available. If you use the wiki list for each ship and then click on the external link it will take you to the relevant Australian Navy page:

Bathurst class corvette - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For example:

HMAS ARARAT (I) - HMA Ship Histories (Sea Power Centre - Australia)
HMAS ARMIDALE (I) - HMA Ship Histories (Sea Power Centre - Australia)
Welcome Aboard - HMAS Benalla (Royal Australian Navy)
HMAS WOLLONGONG (I) - HMA Ship Histories (Sea Power Centre - Australia)
