Jutland

We almost got by the anniversary of the Battle of Jutland (May 31-June 1, 1916) without some mention. This Wikipedia image shows the British battle cruiser Queen Mary exploding. There is a Lion-class ship to the left.

Today was the annivesary of the Battle of Dogger Bank in 1915

I noticed two good photographs from the Battle of Dogger Bank (24 January 1915). I hope that these will work for us: the Seydlitz on fire and low in the water (from www.cityofart.net/bship/gun_ops.html)

the Derfflinger, Seydlitz, and Von der Tann on the way to the battle (from www.sms-navy.com)
