		Sir John Jellicoe died on 20 November 1935 and is buried in the crypt of St. Paul's Cathedral.

	Jellicoe's Leadership (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Jellicoe was selected as the subject of this essay out of a desire to investigate further the controversy surrounding his handling of the Grand Fleet at Jutland, and the criticism that followed his failure to inflict an overwhelming defeat on the High Seas Fleet.
		Jellicoe had calculated that the High Seas Fleet destroyers would be capable of firing some 440 torpedoes, although many of these vessels had already fired some or all of their torpedoes, and others were unable to get into a firing position.
		Jellicoe's command of the remainder of the fleet, however, fits best into the DCA category of "problem-solving," in which missions and objectives are articulated for subordinates, along with substantial guidance about how the objectives are to be achieved.

		On the eve of World War One, Jellicoe joined the home fleet at Scapa and was soon appointed commander in chief.
		The Royal Navy suffered the greater losses in ships and men, but these were insufficient to affect the numerical superiority of their fleet over the Germans in the North Sea.
		While Jellicoe was criticised at the time and failed to achieve the knockout blow that was within his grasp, he nonetheless succeeded in neutralising the German naval threat for the remainder of the war.

	Battle of Jutland
		Admiral Sir John Jellicoe was criticised for being over-cautious, but he argued that it was vitally important to protect the size of his Grand Fleet.
		Whereas Jellicoe was able to inform the British government on 2nd June that the Grand Fleet was ready for further action, the German High Seas Fleet had to be reconstructed and was never in the position to risk another major North Sea confrontation.
		Jellicoe was therefore able to claim that his tactics were justified by the battle's long-term effects.

		Unfortunately it was not until the 26 August that the Admiralty informed Admiral John Jellicoe (C-in-C Grand Fleet) that a major operation was planned in the North Sea, and even when they did inform him the information they sent was limited and vague.
		Jellicoe was concerned by the lack of support for an operation so close to German bases and so requested that he bring the Grand Fleet out in support.
		Jellicoe took this opportunity and he informed the Admiralty that he would be sending Beatty with the First Battlecruiser Squadron and Commodore Goodenough with the First Light Cruiser Squadron to reinforce the covering force.
