2024-04-05 06:22:30 +0000 UTC View PostThe "Cambridgeshire" super-cruiser, leading the charge, naturally became the target of concentrated fire from the French forces. This, in fact, was precisely the reason the British had the "Cambridgeshire" in the vanguard—to shield the "Queen Elizabeth" and preserve its full combat capability until it could close to an effective firing range.

However, the results of the British gunfire were the same as the French's—none of the shells hit their targets, with the nearest one landing a hundred to two hundred meters off.
This was qu...
