Title
Battle of Jutland - Painting of John Travers Cornwell at the Battle of Jutland
Description
Jack Cornwell was only 16 when he lost his life at the Battle of Jutland. His ship came under heavy fire and he was mortally wounded, but stayed steady at his post, ready to follow orders. It was this devotion to duty that earned him both the nation's respect and a posthumous Victoria Cross. This painting by Frank Salisbury depicts John "Jack" Cornwell at his gun post on HMS Chester during the Battle of Jutland.
