Sinking of the German Cruiser Bluecher, in the naval engagement between German and British dreadnoughts in the North Sea. The Battle of Dogger Bank was a naval battle fought near the Dogger Bank in the North Sea on January 24, 1915 between squadrons of the British Grand Fleet and the German High Seas Fleet. During a stern chase lasting several hours, the British slowly caught up with the Germans and engaged them with long-range gunfire. The British disabled Bluecher, the rear German ship, but the Germans put the British flagship HMS Lion out of action with heavy damage. Since the British lost no ships and suffered few casualties, while the Germans lost a ship and most of its crew, the action was considered a British victory.
