The Battle of Jutland, which took place on 31 May 1916, changed the course of the war because it diminished the German naval fleet’s capabilities to such an extent that they couldn’t fight at sea again, That’s despite a major imbalance in casualties; the UK had over 6,000 killed, Germany had over 2,500 killed.

Great that this project is reaching a wider audience. My wife’s grandfather was in the Royal Marines on HMS Collingwood at the Battle of Jutland
