IrishGunner Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Very nice topic and ribbon bar. I wish I had something to add other than admiration.

peter monahan Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I must confess to always feeling a guilty sense of glee when I read about this battle: the Russians getting thumped by a bunch of what they no doubt referrred to as 'primitives'. Sorry, not very Chrisitian I know. More importantly, I suppose, arguably one of the first truly 'modern' naval battles.
The Prussian Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Hello! A war, that will not be discussed so often today. If someone, who speaks german, is interested in that war, I can recommend the following book: Graf E. zu Reventlow: Der Russisch-Japanische Krieg (Army edition, 1906, 496 pages)

Does it include any after-action reports on Russian ships that went to Tsingtau seeking repairs and medical aid?
The Prussian Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Hello Claudius! No, the last chapter is about the conquer of Sachalin. But, this is the army-edition. There is a larger edition in three volumes, maybe you´ll find it there.
