| Battle of Jutland 31st may 1916.
Naval Battle which took place on the west coast of Jutland, Both the
Germans and the British claimed victory. The Germans because they sank
more ships. The British because the German High seas fleet would never
again venture from there ports for the rest of the war. The German
main fleet consisted of 16 Dreadnaught Battleships and 6 pre
\dreadnaught battleships, 11 Light Cruisers and 72 destroyers. The
British Fleet consisted of Admiral Jellicoe's fleet of 28 Dreadnaught
battleships and 3 battle cruisers and Admiral Beatty's force of 6 battle
cruisers and 4 fast battleships.
The Germans had planned to sail from the Baltic to the north sea with
the plan to engage the British Battle Cruisers in Norwegian waters. But
due to German radio messages being intercepted by the British the
British Grand fleet were alerted.
