Admiral. Following successful naval campaigns on the Nile and in China he was made naval secretary in 1910. His prompt action in August 1914 at Heligoland Bight averted naval disaster, and his advance initiatives secured victory for the British Fleet under Admiral Jellicoe at the Battle of Jutland in 1916. As Commander of the Grand Fleet, Beatty accepted the surrender of the German High Sea Fleet in 1918. He served as First Sea Lord from 1921 to 1927.
