Battle of Jutland

Main article: Thirteenth D.F. (Royal Navy) at the Battle of Jutland

Ten destroyers of the Thirteenth under the lead of the light cruiser Champion screened the First Battle Cruiser Squadron during the battle, bolstered by two destroyers temporarily detached from the Tenth Destroyer Flotilla. Eight of these vessels delivered a torpedo attack against the enemy battle cruisers at about 4.15pm, after gun and torpedo battle with enemy destroyers who were similarly tasked.

They were organised as follows:^[19]^[20]

light cruiser Champion, flagship, Captain (D) James U. Farie
- Nestor (lost), Commander E. B. S. Bingham
- Nomad (lost), Lieutenant-Commander Paul Whitfield
- Narborough, Lieutenant-Commander Geoffrey Corlett
- Obdurate, Lieutenant-Commander Cecil H. H. Sams
- Petard, Lieutenant-Commander Evelyn C. O. Thomson
- Pelican, Lieutenant-Commander Kenneth A. Beattie
- Nerissa, Lieutenant-Commander Montague G. B. Legge
- Onslow, Lieutenant-Commander John C. Tovey
- Moresby, Lieutenant-Commander Roger V. Alison
- Nicator, Lieutenant Jack E. A. Mocatta
- Termagant, Lieutenant-Commander Cuthbert Patrick Blake (temporarily attached)
- Turbulent, Lieutenant-Commander Dudley Stuart (lost. temporarily attached)

At the same time, Nepean remained in harbour and Paladin, Negro, Nereus, Penn and Penn were in dockyard hands.^[21]

June, 1916

Nestor and Nomad have been removed, owing to their loss at Jutland. Ophelia has left to join the Fourteenth Destroyer Flotilla and Partridge has disappeared, to appear in the Fourteenth in July.

Gabriel joins as a flotilla leader, as well as new destroyers Negro, Paladin, Penn, Petard and Pigeon.

Strength is now a shared cruiser, a flotilla leader, fourteen destroyers and a shared depot ship.^[22]^[23]

A flotilla torpedo attack exercise conducted on the 22nd suggests that the flotilla was organized in many divisions, as the Second a Seventh Divisions attacked the British battle cruisers Tiger, Lion and Princess Royal as Tiger conducted a special firing exercise against squadron mates Repulse and Renown. Champion, then stationed off Lion's port bow at 29,000 yards, hoisted "AU 1" to order the attack against Tiger. The meaning of the signal "AU #" is not explained, but perhaps is the same as the "BE #" orders outlined in the Grand Fleet Battle Orders, H.F. 0034/39 — an attack by all four divisions, approaching in two groups, each of two divisions with a gap separating their divisions. In this case, there were eight destroyers, and their torpedoes were fired from 10,000 yards when the enemy formation was inclined 142 degrees to the left. Tiger suffered one certain hit, and she and Lion also suffered a probable hit despite having turned four points away during the time of flight. The torpedoes achieved an overrun of 6,000 yards — a turn of fully 7.5 points away at the time of firing would have been necessary to outrun the torpedoes.^[52]^[53]

July, 1918

Valkyrie is no longer paid off, but Gabriel left to lead the slow division of the Twentieth Destroyer Flotilla.

The new destroyer Woolston has joined.

Shockingly, Woolwich has left to work with the Third Destroyer Flotilla and the Thirteenth's destroyers are now all tenders to Columbine.

After so many months of constant change, this roster lasted until March, 1919.^[60]

March, 1919

The massive post-war reorganization of the destroyer flotillas eradicated the Thirteenth and sent its assets to various new purposes.^[61]^[62]

Flotilla is Dis-established

Champion has been relegated to "Miscellaneous" status in port, and in April would wind up in Rosyth.

Fifth Destroyer Flotilla would grab the the seven "R" class destroyers.

The new Second Destroyer Flotilla has taken up flotilla leader Valentine as well as destroyers Vectis, Vega, Venetia, Verulam, Vesper, Vidette, Vimiera, Violent, Walpole Wessex, Westcott, Westminster, Winchelsea, Windsor and Wolfhound.

Third Destroyer Flotilla has snared flotilla leader Valkyrie and destroyers Vendetta, Verdun, Viceroy, Wakeful, Whitley and Woolston.

Drill and Practice

In 1916, sixty-six test runs of the flotilla's 21-in Mark II torpedos in the first half of that year proved 77% probable to endanger the enemy.^[63]

-::::::::::H.M.S. "Champion,"
-:::::::::::::3rd June 1916.
-SIR,
-:I HAVE the honour to forward the following report of
-Proceedings of H.M.S. " Champion " and 13th Destroyer Flotilla
-during the recent action of the 31st May–lst June 1916.
-:2. At 2.50 p.m., 31st May, H.M.S. " Onslow "and " Moresby "
-were detached to join H.M.S. "Engadine," but attacked enemy
-Battle Cruiser Fleet with remainder of Flotilla, as described in
-paragraph 5.
-:3. At commencement of action station was taken up on the
-starboard bow of .H.M.S. "Lion," Destroyers in company
-being :—
-:::" Nestor " - Commander Hon. Edward B. S.
-::::::Bingham.
-:::" Nomad " Lieut. Commander Paul Whitfield.
-:::" Narborough "- JP Geoffrey Corlett.
-:::" Obdurate " tt Cecil H. H. Sams.
-:::" Petard " 13 3/ Evelyn C. O. Thomson.
-:::" Pelican " 3t Kenneth A. Beattie.
-:::" Nerissa " Montague C. B. Legge.
-::: " Onslow "1 )3 John C. Tovey.
-:::"Moresby "1 tt PP Roger V. Alison.
-:::" Nicator " Lieutenant Jack E. A. Mocatta.
-:::" Termagant " Lieut. Commander Cuthbert P. Blake.
-:::" Turbulent " - Dudley Stuart.
-:::(The last two named Destroyers being temporarily attached.)
-:4. At 4.30 p.m. Enemy's Battle Fleet was sighted by
-" Champion " and reported to you.
-:5. At 4.15 p.m. the whole Flotilla was ordered to attack
-Enemy Battle Cruiser Fleet. This attack was well carried out,
-and it is thought that at least two Enemy Destroyers were sunk.
-I regret to state that H.M.S. " Nestor " (Commander Hon.
-E. B. S. Bingham) and H.M.S. " Nomad " (Lieutenant Commander
-Paul Whitfield) did not return from this action, and must be
-considered to have been sunk.
-:6. At 7.45 p.m. H.M.S. " Onslow " was reported unable to
-steam, and was taken in tow by H.M.S. "Defender."
-:7. No further opportunity of attacking Enemy occurred
-during. the day.
-:8. At night station was taken astern of Battle Fleet, course
-South. About 11.30 p.m. heavy firing was opened on our
-starboard beam, apparently at some of our Destroyers between
-the 13th Flotilla and the enemy. I hauled out to the eastward
-as I was unable to attack with any of our own Flotilla, our own
-forces being between me and the Enemy. I then resumed course
-South ; firing was observed at intervals during the night on
-our starboard beam. Destroyers of the 13th Flotilla, with the
-exception of H.M.S. " Obdurate " and "Moresby," lost touch
-with me during the night. H.M.S. " Narborough " as Senior
-Officer, reports that he took charge IA the remainder, and rejoined
-the Fleet at 9.45 a.m. on the 1st instant.
-:H.M.S. " Marksman " and " Maenad " joined me at about
-.30 a.m. At 2.50 a.m. course was altered to North to conform
-with signal received from the Commander-in-Chief.
-:9. At 3.25 a.m. four Destroyers, steering southward, were
-sighted ; owing to the mist I was uncertain at first who they
-were ; but at 3.30 a.m. I made them out to be the enemy, and
-opened fire, range about 3,600 yards. Two torpedoes were
-fired at "Champion," the first one passing under our bows, the
-second just missing close astern. Enemy passed on opposite
-course, and when ship had been steadied after avoiding torpedoes,
-the enemy had disappeared in the mist, and I resumed my same
-course.
-:10. At 4.30 a.m. H.M.S. " Obdurate " picked up two
-survivors, and H.M.S. " Marksman " one survivor, from H.M.S.
-" Ardent."
-:At 5 a.m. two rafts were sighted, and H.M.S. " Moresby "
-rescued seven men, and H.M.S. " Maenad " eleven men, survivors
-from H.M.S. "Fortune."
-:11. At about 6 a.m. H.M.S. " Marksman " was detached to
-examine vessel to westward, which appeared to be a disabled
-Destroyer, and lost touch with me. Nothing further occurred,
-and I returned to base, by your orders, arriving at 3.30 p.m.,
-nd June 1910.
-:12. Letter of Proceedings from H.M.S. " Narborough," the
-Senior Officer surviving from Destroyer attack, is attached.
-Reports have been called for from remainder of 13th Flotilla,
-and an addendum to this letter will be forwarded when the
-reports have been collected.
-:13. In addition to loss of H.M.S. " Nestor " and "Nomad,"
-H.M.S. " Turbulent " '(Lieutenant-Commander Dudley Stuart)
-is reported by H.M.S. " Narborough " to have been lost sight of
-at 0.30 a.m. on the 1st instant, and was probably rammed, or
-sunk by gunfire.
-Total casualties and names have not yet been ascertained.

-:On  receiving the signal to carry out torpedo attack on enemy
-battle cruiser fleet, Obdurate turned towards the enemy
-and soon  became engaged with their destroyers and one light
-cruiser. Range varied from 6,000 to 3,000 yards, and during the
-destroyer action one of the enemy's destroyers was blown up
-and two others  badly damaged; probably one of these two sank
-as the guns firing at her lost sight of her.
-:The enemy destroyers and light cruiser were driven back to
-the protection of their big ships, and " Obdurate " was then too
-far astern to deliver a torpedo attack. " Obdurate " was hit
-twice by  a 4.1 shell, but suffered no casualties.

+Strength is now a cruiser, two flotilla leaders, twenty-eight destroyers and a depot ship.{{SMNLDec16|p. 12}}
-:On receiving the signal to attack with torpedoes, I attacked
-with H.M.S. "Turbulent." The first torpedo fired was set for
-high speed, six feet deep, and was aimed at the bead of the
-German destroyer  flotilla, which was crossing over to meet our
-attack. The track was closely followed, and tube's crew state
-that they undoubtedly saw it hit a German Destroyer about
-amidships and explode. I opened fire with my gun on this
-destroyer a few minutes later, and she was then lying stopped,
-with her upper deck awash and obviously sinking.
-:" Petard " then took part in the general engagement with
-the German Destroyers, and the three remaining torpedoes were
-fired at a range of about 7,000 yards on the bow of the German
-Battle Cruiser Fleet. All these torpedoes must have crossed
-the track of the German line.
-:At 12.15 a.m. course was altered to S.W. by W., and ten
-minutes later the line crossed ahead of a division of German
-Battleships. I sighted the leading battleship about six points
-on my starboard bow steering S.E. at about 400 or 500 yards.
-This ship switched on recognition lights, consisting of two red
-over one white light and, as some destroyer ahead of me in the
-line then switched on her "fighting lights," I think the Germans
-at once knew we were enemy. As " Petard " had no torpedoes
-left I could not attack, so I increased to full speed, and altered
-course slightly to port to avoid being rammed. I passed about
-yards ahead of the German ship, who appeared to be one
-of the " Wittelsbach " class. As soon as we were clear of her
-stem, she illuminated us with searchlights, and we came under
-a heavy fire from her and the next ship in the line. Two salvoes
-seemed to strike us, and, in all, I think, we received six hits.
-:I regret that I never saw " {{UK-1Turbulent}}," who was in station
-astern of " Petard," after passing the German Squadron ;
-according to the evidence of some of my Ship's Company, I
-am afraid she must have been rammed and sunk.

-:" Pelican " was unable to fire torpedoes owing to the other
-two divisions being engaged by enemy torpedo craft between
-the fleets, and by a division of the 9th Flotilla, who were coming
-up in the opposite direction.
-:At about 10.35 p.m. there was heavy firing in N. Westerly
-direction, and destroyers were seen in the searchlight rays of
-attacking ships. Shortly afterwards there was a huge explosion
-in that direction. At 0.40, June 1st, when on a course S.W.,
-speed 30 knots, I observed two ships on starboard quarter,
-which were at first taken to be our Light Cruisers. They switched
-on three vertical lights, the upper two being red and lower green,
-at the same time " Pelican's " stem was lit up by a searchlight
-which was immediately transferred to " Petard" and " Turbu-
-lent," who were astern. When sighted position was unfavourable
-for attack.

+===May, 1917===
-:At about 6.5 p.m., sighting an enemy Light Cruiser, class
+{{UK-Champion}} again has a Captain (D) embarked.
-uncertain, with 3 funnels, with topgallant forecastle only about
-,000 yards from 1st B.C.S., I decided to attack her. All guns
-engaged enemy Light Cruiser, and 58 rounds were fired at a
-range of 2,000 to 4,000 yards ; undoubtedly a large number of
-hits were scored, as they were easily spotted at this range. I
-then gave orders for all torpedoes to be fired. I saw the first
-torpedo leave the ship, and immediately was struck by a big
-shell amidships the starboard side. There was a big escape of
-steam, completely enveloping both torpedo tubes. Sub-Lieu-
-tenant Moore, Leading Signalman Cassin, also several other
-ratings and myself saw the torpedo hit Light Cruiser below
-conning tower, and explode.
-:Owing to two shells having exploded in No. 2 Boiler room,
-and badly damaged main feed tank and all the water in the
-reserve feed tank being now used, at 7.0 p.m. ship stopped and
-electric current was lost. At 7.15 p.m. " Defender " closed
-" Onslow " and asked if assistance was required. On learning
-" Defender " could only steam 10 knots, I asked to be taken in
-tow whilst endeavouring to effect repairs; this " {{UK-Defender}} "
-did under very trying circumstances, and with large enemy
-ships rapidly approaching. In tow of " {{UK-Defender}} " I then
-proceeded W. by N. Using salt-water feed, Engineer Lieutenant
-Commander Foulkes raised speed for slow speed to enable me
-to use steering engine, and when weather got worse to lessen
-strain on towing hawser. Owing to ship's condition I decided
-to make for the nearest port—Aberdeen—arriving there about
-.0 p.m. the 2nd June.

+A flotilla torpedo attack exercise conducted on the 22nd suggests that the flotilla was organized in many divisions, as the Second a Seventh Divisions attacked the British battle cruisers {{UK-Tiger}}, {{UK-Lion}} and {{UK-PrincessRoyal}} as ''Tiger'' conducted a special firing exercise against squadron mates {{UK-Repulse}} and {{UK-Renown}}.  {{UK-Champion}}, then stationed off {{UK-Lion}}'s port bow at 29,000 yards, hoisted "AU 1" to order the attack against ''Tiger''. The meaning of the signal "AU #" is not explained, but perhaps is the same as the "BE #" orders outlined in the [[Grand Fleet Battle Orders]],  H.F. 0034/39 &mdash; an attack by all four divisions, approaching in two groups, each of two divisions with a gap separating their divisions.  In this case, there were eight destroyers, and their torpedoes were fired from 10,000 yards when the enemy formation was inclined 142 degrees to the left.  ''Tiger'' suffered one certain hit, and she and ''Lion'' also suffered a probable hit despite having turned four points away during the time of flight.  The torpedoes achieved an overrun of 6,000 yards &mdash; a turn of fully 7.5 points away at the time of firing would have been necessary to outrun the torpedoes.{{ARTS1918|p. 231, Plate 155}}{{GoldingGFBOs|Destroyer Addendum & Destroyer Diagrams}}
