Lives of the First World War

HMS Dublin was in the 2nd Light Cruiser Squadron at the Battle of Jutland. During the night actions, she fired 117 x 6-inch shells and along with HMS Southampton, attacked and sank a destroyer. She sustained severe damage. Three crew members were killed and 27 wounded when she received five 5.9 shell inch hits from the cruiser SMS Elbing and eight 4.1-inch shell hits from SMS Stuttgart and possibly others. Repairs were not completed until 17 June. The commanding officer at the time of the battle was Captain Albert Charles Scott. This community will endeavour to identify all those that served on the ship at the battle.
