  • United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922
    Cover: During World War I, convoys carried almost two million men to Europe. In this 1920 oil painting “A Fast Convoy” by Burnell Poole, the destroyer USS Allen (DD-66) is shown escorting USS Leviathan (SP-1326). Throughout the course of the war, Leviathan transported more than 98,000 troops. Naval History and Heritage Command 1 United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922 Frank A. Blazich Jr., PhD Naval History and Heritage Command Introduction This document is intended to provide readers with a chronological progression of the activities of the United States Navy and its involvement with World War I as an outside observer, active participant, and victor engaged in the war’s lingering effects in the postwar period. The document is not a comprehensive timeline of every action, policy decision, or ship movement. What is provided is a glimpse into how the 20th century’s first global conflict influenced the Navy and its evolution throughout the conflict and the immediate aftermath. The source base is predominately composed of the published records of the Navy and the primary materials gathered under the supervision of Captain Dudley Knox in the Historical Section in the Office of Naval Records and Library. A thorough chronology remains to be written on the Navy’s actions in regard to World War I. The nationality of all vessels, unless otherwise listed, is the United States.

  • Diary of Leading Stoker Victor Bethell HMS Gloucester 1916
    Diary of Leading Stoker Victor Bethell, HMS Gloucester, 26th April – 5th June 1916 HMS Gloucester was a Town-class light cruiser that took part in the first naval encounter of the war, the chase of the German battlecruiser SMS Goeben and the light cruiser SMS Breslau in the Mediterranean, during which she engaged and hit Breslau. In May 1916, she was back in home waters with the 3rd Light Cruiser Squadron, part of the Grand Fleet’s Battlecruiser fleet. The extract below covers the Irish Easter Rising and the Battle of Jutland. A Leading Stoker was in charge of a group of stokers, whose job was to shovel coal into the furnaces of a ship’s boilers. Known as the ‘Black Gang’, they did hot, hard work in the bowels of the ship. Wednesday 26th April: At Queenstown. We take onboard 100 Royal Marines and proceed to Galway Bay, on the west coast of Ireland. Thursday 27th April: We arrive at Galway and land the soldiers to stop the Sinn Féin rising. The Irish Police bring aboard five leaders and we held them prisoners. Friday 28th April: Troopship arrives and they land more soldiers. Wednesday 10th May: Still at Galway. HMS Adventure relieves us and we proceed to Queensferry in the Firth of Forth. Friday 12th May: Arrived at Queensferry. Tuesday 30th May: Left Queensferry with the fleet and go full speed for Germany. Wednesday 31st May: At four pm, enemy sighted and our battlecruisers open fire. We were alongside the battlecruisers (HMS Lion flagship) about the moment that HMS Invincible was blown up and sank in a few minutes (she was off the port side of us).

These came to be known as “heavy cruisers” because of their size and later because of their armament. All of these ships were built under limitations resulting from a series of naval treaties, and thus they were also known as “treaty cruisers.” These ships gave valuable service during World War II and saw action in all the major battles in the Pacific. A separate volume will cover the heavy cruisers built during and after the war that saw service not only in 1941–45, but also later in the Korean and Vietnam conflicts.

  • Wreck of HMS Falmouth, Off Bridlington Statement Of
    www.fjordr.com v. 100816 Wreck of HMS Falmouth, off Bridlington Statement of Significance with supporting narrative Introduction This Statement of Significance has been prepared by Fjordr Limited on behalf of Historic England as part of the HMS Falmouth project (HE 7025). HMS Falmouth was a Town Class light cruiser laid down February 1910 at Beardmores at Dalmuir on the River Clyde. HMS Falmouth was based in home waters during the First World War and was engaged in numerous operations, including several major engagements (Heligoland Bight, 28th August 1914; Raid on Scarborough, Whitby and Hartlepool, 16th December 1914; Jutland, 31st May – 1st June 1916). HMS Falmouth sank as a result of being repeatedly torpedoed by U-boats in the fleet action of 19-20th August 1916.The identification and position of the wreck of HMS Falmouth are firmly established. The wreck of HMS Falmouth is important in terms of its period and rarity. As an isolated wreck it does not have group value as such, but it has a clear association with the landscape of the North Sea in the First World War. These aspects of its significance arise from the narratives manifest in Falmouth’s physical remains relating to its construction, motive power, armament, operational history and life on board. HMS Falmouth also exhibits several key aspects of England’s history immediately prior to the First World War and in the first two years of the conflict. The importance of the wreck of HMS Falmouth is elaborated below in respect of the ship’s build, use, loss, survival and investigation.
