WWI 1914 1918-Germany. German 2nd class Cruiser Hertha 1887. SMS Hertha was a protected cruiser of the Victoria Louise class, built for the German Imperial Navy Kaiserliche Marine, in the 1890s. Hertha served abroad in the German East Asia Squadron for the first six years of her career; she served briefly as the Squadron flagship in 1900. She contributed a landing party to the force that captured the Taku Forts during the Boxer Rebellion in 1900. After returning to Germany in 1905, she was modernized and used as a training ship in 1908, following the completion of the refit. She conducted a series of training cruises, and several notable officers served aboard the ship as cadets, including Karl Donitz and Ernst Lindemann. At the outbreak of World War I, Hertha was mobilized into the 5th Scouting Group. (Photo By: Fireshot Studio/Fototeca/Universal Images Group via Getty Images)
