HMS Jutland (D62) HMS Jutland (D62) HMS "Jutland" (D62) was a later or 1943 fleet destroyer of the United Kingdom's Royal Navy. She was named after the Battle of Jutland, the largest naval battle of the First World War. The first "Jutland" was launched in 1945, but was cancelled that same year. Her sister ship, "Malplaquet" - named after a battle between Britain and France during the War of the Spanish Succession in 1709 - was renamed "Jutland" just prior to her launch on 20 February 1946, and was commissioned on 30 July 1947. The original "Jutland" was finally broken up in 1957
Battle of the Frontiers were sent later. The Battle of Haelen ("Halen") was a cavalry battle at the beginning of World War I. Haelen (Halen in Dutch) was a small market town along the principal axis of advance of the German imperial army and provided a good crossing point over the River Gete. The battle took place on 12 August 1914 between German forces, led by Georg von der Marwitz and the Belgian troops commanded by Léon de Witte. Belgian engineers had blown the bridge over the Gete but the structure only partly collapsed and the Germans got troops over it into the centre
