Portsmouth Men at the Battle of Jutland
Portsmouth Men at the Battle of Jutland
Remembering the lives of people from Portsmouth in Hampshire, or with some other close association with the city, who were involved in the Battle of Jutland. This community includes those who survived the battle, as well as those who died. The Battle of Jutland had a massive impact on Portsmouth, with many hundreds of Portsmouth men killed on 31 May and 1 June 1916, and it was almost certainly the bloodiest couple of days in Portsmouth’s history. Please note that this community does not, by default, automatically include all naval men with a PO service number, unless they have some other specific link with the city.
