Second Squadron of the Pacific Fleet, Part 2
The final section of the book, dedicated to the actions of the 2nd Squadron of the Pacific Fleet during the Russo-Japanese War of 1904–1905, contains detailed information on the flagships and senior officers, as well as all the warships and support vessels that were part of it. These include hospital ships, tugboats, and vessels used for reconnaissance.
This section provides information on the ships, vessels, and officers of the Second Squadron of the Pacific Fleet that participated in the Battle of Tsushima and in support of the campaign to the Far East. The command staff is listed as of the time of the battle—May 14–15, 1905—with awards for their participation in the battle and subsequent orders. Since various sources provide discrepancies in the loss of personnel, this work presents information published in the "Sanitary Report for the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905," issued by the Fleet Sanitary Directorate in 1915. Nearly all surviving participants in the war were awarded the "Medal in Memory of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905" (awarded in 1906), and those who participated in the 2nd Pacific Squadron's voyage around Africa to the Far East (1907) were awarded the "Medal in Memory of the 2nd Pacific Squadron's Voyage Around Africa to the Far East in 1904-1905."
The book is equipped with a substantial scientific reference apparatus, useful for researchers studying this topic.
