Origin/meaning
Named for brittish Admiral Sir Walter Cowan (1871-1956) who commanded the 1st Cruiser Squadron in the Baltic 1919 whose task was to protect the sealanes to the new States of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Finland. His forces took the mission agressively and attacked the Soviet Russian Fleet at Kronstadt Naval Base and sunk a Battleship and a Cruiser of the Soviet Russian Navy. The Ships badge is based on the Coat of Arms of the Admiral, who was given a Baronetcy in the 1921 New Years Honours. The Motto translates as "Ready for Everything". The badge was created by Mr Priit Herodes in 2006.
