in 1904, Captain Gregory Belayeff (of the "Korietz"), Captain Vladimir Stefanoff (of the "Yenisei"), and Captain Vsevolod Rudineff (of the "Varyag") were all serving in the Imperial Russian Navy. Belayeff and Rudineff lost their ships in the Battle of Chemulpo Bay, and faced boards of inquiry as a result. Stefanoff, however, went down with the "Yenisei" when it collided with its own minefield.
