Messoudieh, Turkish Battleship
|
Turkish battleship the Messoudieh served as a stationary
guard ship near Chanak in the
Dardanelles at the start of world war one but she was sunk on 13th December 1914 by
a torpedo from the British
submarine B11. |
|

Turkish battleship Messudiyeh of the Ottoman Navy.
She was sunk by a British submarine (B11) off the coast of the
Dardanelles. |
 |
The captain of the Messoudieh in 1897 was Mehemet Bey
who served briefly as a Naval attaché in England. The officer on the
left was the first lieutenant of the vessel, next are her first engineer
and doctor, with other engineers. The officers behind are mostly
lieutenants. It was said at the time that the engineering branch of the
Turkish Navy was probably the weakest part of the navy.
