Summary

The image is of the ship badge for HMAS Swan, one or several naval vessels of the Royal Australian Navy. The ship badge is a logo used to represent the ship, and applies to all active or previous ships bearing the name. The image was originally located at Source: http://www.navy.gov.au/downloads/badges/shipdecombadges4.html, but following a reorganisation of the RAN website in August 2008, can now be found at http://www.navy.gov.au//Category:Badges

Fair use rationales

As several Australian warships may have used this name and ship badge over history, the image will likely be used in multiple articles. A fair use rationale should be provided for each article.
