Harper]] (author of the ''Record of the Battle of Jutland'') is a copy of <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">an English </ins>translation of an Austro-Hungarian Navy report on German Imperial Navy warships after the [[Battle of Jutland]].<ref>Harper papers. Churchill Archives Centre. JEHR 1/4. This research was made possible by the <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">[https://www.chu.cam.ac.uk/news/news-and-events/the-first-colin-bell-award-winners-announced/ </ins>Colin Bell Award, a grant from the Colin Bell Fund at Churchill College, Cambridge<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">]</ins>.</ref> It was prepared by ''Marineartillerie-Oberingenieure 2. Klasse'' Georg Schindler. This report is in many ways more detailed than that of ''Fregattenkapitäne'' Hieronymus Graf von Colloredo-Mannsfeld [[Austro-Hungarian Naval Attaché Report on the Battle of Jutland|prepared immediately after Jutland]], which is also in Harper's papers. The references to <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">"</ins>I.D.<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">" notes </ins>suggest that, like Colloredo-Mannsfeld's report, this was a translation prepared in the [[Naval Intelligence Division (Royal Navy)|Naval Intelligence Division]]<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">. Transcriber [[User:Simon Harley|Simon Harley]] has faithfully reproduced the many typing errors in the translation</ins>.</div></td></tr>

Ships under A.B.C.J. and M. were in Wilhelmshaven. D.E.F. in Hamburg and G.H.K.L. in Kiel.<br />
<br />
In the following reports on each ship, Section 1 deals with the effect of enemy hits on ships A. to H. above, in conjunction with the two attached ship sketches (Enclosures 1 and 2). [Not attached.]<br />
<br />
Of the hits marked in the sketches those of a gunnery interest are distinguished by red ink. Section II gives general remarks concerning the ships in question.<br />
<br />
Further a report is submitted on installations in newly commissioned ships (K. and L.) also on a ship still under construction (J.), as well as means of combating submarines installed in Fishing vessels (M.) and finally, briefly on the Ordnance workshops in the Naval Arsenals (N. and O.).<br />
<br />
A. "SEYDLITZ" (Enclosure 1).<br />
<br />
This Cruiser received 24 shell hits (38 cm. 34.3 cm. and 30.5 cm.)(15", 13.5" and 12") and one Torpedo hit.<br />
<br />
Except for 1 shell hit (apparently 34.3 cm.) (13.5") on the starboard side forward (Hits nos.2-4) and one hit no.16 (38 cm.?) in the starboard after 15 cm. (6") casemate all hits came from the port side. At the time of the inspection all hits came from the port side. At the time of the inspection all Gun tubes, Guns and many fittings had been dismantled and landed.<br />
<br />
<center>I. Effects of shell hits.</center><br />
<br />
1. A large calibre shell (hit no.8) struck the 2nd. 15 cm. port casemate (from forward), put the gun out of action and killed or seriously wounded the majority of the gun's crew.<br />
<br />
2. A 38 cm. shell exploded in the 4th 15 cm. casemate (hit No.13) the gun was similarly damaged, and 2 men (wounded) remained alive of the crew.<br />
<br />
3. In the port after 15 cm. casemate, No.6 gun, (hit No.15) had the same effect as the two described above.<br />
<br />
4. A 38 cm. shell (hit No.16) penetrated the armoured bulkhead on starboard side aft, near the last 15 cm. casemate, close to the curve of the armour (Fig.1, Enc.3) destroyed the 15 cm. gun and killed most of the gun crew.<br />
<br />
Of the twelve 15 cm. guns it appears that 2 port and 4 starboard fired unceasingly until the end.<br />
<br />
5. No.2 Turret (starboard) received a hit from port on the vertical turret armour (hit No.21) to the right of the right gun. Part of the nose of the shell pierced the armour anddestroyed [sic] the cradle and training gear of the right gun. The left was undamaged. The turret remained in action with this gun.<br />
<br />
6. An interesting hit is to be seen on the right 28 cm. gun of No.3 Turret port. The gun was on one of the jetties of the arsenal and could be examined. A large calibre shell hit the aforesaid gun a glancing blow just outside the turret, producing at the point of impact, a considerable elliptical scoop on the outside, causing a fracture of the inner tube and in addition bent the gun so that the axis of the tube at the muzzle was (as far as could be estimated) 200 mm. (about 8 in.) out of line.<br />
<br />
The cradle of this gun was split, the trunnions somewhat bent and the caps thereof partially opened out.<br />
<br />
The left gun of this turret, however, remained serviceable and the Turret could continue firing without interruption.<br />
<br />
7. A 34.3 cm. (13.5") shell (hit No.18) pierced the vertical armour of the revolving structure of No.4 Turret superimposed to the left of the left gun exploded inside the turret, ignited the cartridges which were ready for loading, put the turret out of action and killed all the crew (about 70 men) except 6.<br />
<br />
T [sic] This turret, already out of action, received another hit later from a 38 cm. (15") shell (hit No.17) this projectile struck the revolving Turret armour close to the lower edge at the right rear of the turret, and partially penetrated the turret.<br />
<br />
8. A Large calibre shell tore off the roof of the after (No.5) turret. (Geschossgeller ? ricochet). The turret suffered no appreciable damage inside.<br />
<br />
The remaining hits are being dealt with in the report on ship construction.≠ [I.D. Note: The original of this report can, unfortunately, not be obtained.]</div>Simon Harley
