Battleship S. M. S. Friedrich der Große was one of the most modern battleships as WW I began. She was one of the four-ship “Kaiser” Class. The S. M. S. Friedrich der Große was assigned to Battleship Squadron Nr 3. She participated with her sister battleships at the May/June 1916 Battle of Jutland (Skagerrak). She was scuttled at Scapa Flow with the bulk of the German fleet, rather than surrender them to the allies. The postcard depicts the ship steaming at sea in profile. Some trailing ships appear behind her. The postcard was never mailed.

This is a color postcard of the battleship S. M. S. Ostfriesland. She was part of the four-ship Helgoland Klasse. She was commissioned in 1911 and was part of Battleship Squadron Nr 1 at WW I’s beginning. She participated in the Battle of Jutland (Skagerrakschlacht) and was undamaged. However, while returning to port she struck a mine and was repaired upon her arrival. After WW I she was turned over to the U.S. Navy. In 1921, she was the first battleship to be sunk by aircraft off Virginia’s coast. The airplanes were commanded by General Billy Mitchell. [Mitchell was later court-martialed by the military for his strong views about aircraft. He correctly predicted that Japan would strike the U.S. Navy. The B-24 medium bomber later was named for him]. The postcard shows the ship steaming at sea. It was never mailed.
