HMS Vindictive at Ostend, Belgium, WW1
View of HMS Vindictive, an Arrogant-class protected cruiser, after the Zeebrugge Raid (23 April 1918), Belgium, when her upperworks were badly damaged by gunfire. Seen here at Ostend, where she had been sunk as a blockship during the Second Ostend Raid (10 May 1918). The Zeebrugge and Ostend Raids gave the ship celebrity, and her bow section has been preserved in Ostend harbour as a lasting memorial
