	Jackie Fisher, 1st Baron Fisher Summary
		Fisher was superintendent of the dockyard at Portsmouth for a few months in 1891–1892 after which he became Third Sea Lord, the naval officer with overall responsibility for provision of ships and equipment.
		Fisher was brought to the admirality to reduce the naval budgets, and to reform the navy for a modern war.
		Fisher's policy with regards to Dreadnoughts has often been misunderstood; it was not a class of ship which he favoured, as his time as admiral of the Mediterranean fleet had taught him the vulnerability of slow big gun ships to mines, torpedoes and submarines.

	First World War.com - Who's Who - John Fisher
		Admiral John Arbuthnot Fisher (1841-1920), often referred to as the greatest Royal Navy Admiral since Nelson, returned to office as First Sea Lord for a short period before his dramatic resignation over the conduct of the Gallipoli affair led to Winston Churchill's banishment to the political wilderness.
		Following a five year stint as the director of naval ordnance and torpedoes, Fisher was appointed in February 1892 to the Admiralty board as Third Sea Lord and controller of the navy.
		Never keen on Churchill's planned expedition through the Dardanelles, one intent upon the capture of the Turkish capital, Fisher nonetheless acquiesced for a period, an action most untypical of the man. However, once the invasion was seen to be faltering Fisher openly argued that it be abandoned.

		John Arbuthnot Fisher, 1st Baron Fisher of Kilverstone (January 25 1841 - July 10 1920), commonly known as "Jackie" Fisher, was a British admiral.
		Amidst massive public controversy, he ruthlessly sold off 90 obselete and small ships and put a further 64 into reserve, describing all these vessels as "too weak to fight and too slow to run away", and "a miser's hoard of useless junk".
		Fisher had opposed to the campaign from the outset, preferring an amphibious attack on the German Baltic Sea coastline, even having shallow draft battlecruisers such as HMS Furious and HMS Courageous constructed for it.
