At the end of May 1916, a chance encounter with Admiral Hipper’s battle cruisers has enabled Beatty to lead the German Battle Fleet into the jaws of Jellicoe’s greatly superior force, but darkness had allowed Admiral Scheer to extricate his ships from a potentially disastrous situation. Though inconclusive, at the Battle of Jutland the German Fleet suffered so much damage that it made no further attempt to challenge the Grand Fleet, and the British blockade remained unbroken.
