Abstract
- The German High Seas Fleet's sorties in strength after the battle of Jutland were few and inconclusive, but as a 'fleet in being' it remained a powerful threat. Britain's Admiralty, alive to the tactical issues thrown up by Jutland's titanic clash, was anxious to learn what had gone wrong. Luckily for the British, German veterans of the battle were progressively posted to U-boats and other units. As they were sunk their survivors began to find their way into the hands of Intelligence Division's interrogators and yield a view from the other side of the mirror. This article identifies the interrogators and their subjects. It examines the quality of their evidence and provides additional insights into the action in the First and Second Scouting Groups and the Third, First and Second Battle Squadrons.
