May 31, 1916
In my younger years, I was focused on the Battle of Jutland and the events leading up to the war at sea (1905-1918). Today is the anniversary of the start of the Battle of Jutland. This seemed like a good Jutland picture.
Actually a photo of the Doggerbank battle. The ship in the distance to the right is SMS Blücher, which is sinking, while HMS Tiger, to the right pushes on.

ReplyDeletethank you Rob. The picture is very indistinct, but it makes sense.
