HMS Vindictive after Zeebrugge Raid, 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. She was later sunk as a blockship at Ostend during the Second Ostend Raid on 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
