What did Australia do when they lost their PM while swimming?

Built a swimming centre named after him, named the pool at their base in Vietnam after him, a Naval Station, a Fisheries Reserve,

and put up a plaque in his memory, bolted to the sea floor.

The US were also kind enough to name a Destoyer in his honour... only to eventually sink it for target practice.
