hit, all batteries except one 6-inch
gun out of commission, and tor
pedo tubes temporarily disabled;
she was afire, her engine squarely
hit. We saw the Fearless turn on
the foremost enemy destroyer and
promptly sink her. My own de-
stroyer was busy doing it's share
of damage making hits, not
often missing, all in a calm, de-
tached sort of way, as if at target
practice.
Signals came that the enemy
had been engaged to the west by
Vice Admiral Beatty :. and off
we went at top speed to help, only
to be recalled when the Fearless
and Arethusd were attacked by
a four-funnel cruiser. The Are
thusa meanwhile had worked all
but two guns back into action.
A torpedo attack was ordered, and
four of our destroyers zig-zagged
forward, sending torpedoes as
they came. The enemy cruiser
turned for its base, but the Fear
less got into sudden action with
a series of salvos, driving it
homeward. The enemy shir vas
badly hit, but escaped by superior
speed. Another enemy ship en-
gagged the Fearless and her de-
stroyers, but her gunners were
no match for the British who
sank her within half an hour. The
Arethusd had engaged the four
funnel German at long range, re-
ceiving no hits herself and unable
to determine what damage she
had done when another Ger
man cut across the path of the
Fearless at full speed. She came
at right angles, speeding at some
rs knots, while the Fearless was
making 18 or 20. The Fearless
loosed two salvos, which took i'm
mediate effect and sent the enemy
scurrying. It was fine piece of
gunnery, when you consider the
change of range, not less than
900 yards a minute. But the chase
was leading for a mine field, and
we were signaled to return to our
base.
Westward, Beattys Fast Battle
Cruiser Squadron, led by his flag
ship Lion, had opened fire on the
Blucher, rear ship of the German
column s. battleship with less
speed which slowly dropped
astern, to be sunk by the Indomi-
table and ArethuSG. Just after II
o'clock the Lion came out of &C.
ton after taking a shell in her
engine room, disabling her port

small vessels now watched enemy
fleet activity they swept right
up to the Boche front door, trying
to sink destroyers and other subs
hoping the great fleet would push
out to protect its lighter craft.
Every fast ship available was
used for this purpose other
subs were appointed to attack
when reinforcements from the
German fleet appeared. The idea
was good, German battleships
were to be slowly drawn from
their base in defense of their
smaller ships, and if the scheme
worked. Vice Admiral Beatty
with first-line dreadnaughts could
sweep in between the enemy and
its own coast.
We prepared for the occasion
:. the day came at last. Before
dawn, January "a, 1915, two Flo
tillas of destroyers led the fast
light cruisers Fearless and Are
thusd to the field of operation. We
swept in a long graceful line,
curving over the shallow Dogger
Banks to cut off enemy destroyers
and subs from their base. My own
destroyer. where l served as a
gunner, was with the First Squad
ron, attached to the 18th Flotilla.
Our plan was to force them west,
where Rear Admiral Christian
waited with a squadron of six
cruisers of the Bacchante class
=. reception committee. An
other squadron of light cruisers,
Beatty and his battleships, were
ready to swing in when needed.
(Such tactics, planned for execu-
ton within a few miles of the
main base of the High Seas Fleet,
were risky; success depended
upon the utmost secrecy and per-
feet coordination of every ship
and commander
At Z o'clock we sighted the Ger
man light cruiser Kolberg and
a destroyer flotilla. Twenty-Five
minutes later the flagship of the
British destroyers fired a few
shots. Other British destroyers
deployed in battle line. A German
destroyer fired salvo after salvo
at us, shells falling 20 to 80 yards
short. A torpedo answered, and
did no damage, but our forward
gun carried part of the destroy
er's superstructure away. Two
German cruisers came up, engag-
ing the Arethusa and Fearless,
and both laid down an accurate
fire. The enemy turned for Helgo-
land, but the Arethnsa was badly

engine; she was lowed home by
the donlitdbie. Admiral Beatty
chased the German fleet as close
as possible to the area protected
by mines and subs -. and the
British retired from what the Ad-
miralty termed "a satisfactory
action" The Biucher had gone
down with 700 men, two German
battle cruisers We're badly dam
aged. The Lion was damaged, but
no British ships were lost; casual
ties were 10 killed, % wounded :.
in a battle where modern dread
naughts met for the first time.
Most of the wounded were aboard
the Arethusd, which had taken
heroic part.
L.andsmen ask: Were you
thrilled and excited?" TO which
there is a universal reply. No, not
in the least, there's little to be
thrilled about. Naval action is
glorified gun drill. In a turret you
see nothing. It's hard labor, lift
ing projectiles by hand which
weigh upwards of 100 pounds
j. :. sweating, gruelling labor.
There's no thought of anything
but the job. Some three or four
men on a destroyer or cruiser can
see the battle itself, no more. The
Owner" (pet name for a COM
handing officer), the Fire Control
Officer and the Spotter-it is
doubtful if even these can see
much Of it. Often the target is
invisible, since many engagements
take place at a distance of 10000
yards over nine land miles.
At this or a greater distance, how
much can anyone see? Both OPP
posing ships are moving, and spot
ting or range finding depends on
a plane or another ship. Range
itself changes second by second.
It's like trying to hit a jack rabbit
from a speeding car /. and it's
almost a miracle that a naval
gunner scores any hits at all.
Time out for wardroom
tale worth recounting, about one
German officer who was gentle
man. The Monmouth in 1912 did
duty in the Gulf of Pechili . an
inlet shaped like whiskey flask.
Off Chifu Admiral Won Spec was
anchored with strong squadron
at the neck of the gulf :. when
word was flashed announcing the
beginning of the second Balkan
war. England and Germany were
close to the breaking point. Der
Tag" was not far distant.
