		She also told me that Reinhard Scheer was ennobled by the German Emperor, but he refused to use the "von" in his name and stayed untitled.
		Reinhard Scheer was born 30 September 1863 in Obernkirchen, Germany; he died 26 November 1928 in Marktredwitz and is buried in Weimar.
		Scheer proved to be a skillful tactician as he confused the British battle formation through battle turns of the entire High Seas Fleet and withdrew from a very threatening and in itself, intimidating embrace.

	Battle of Jutland
		Scheer turned and fled under the protection of brave torpedo runs from his battle cruisers as darkness fell.
		At the time the caution of Jellicoe was also attacked, but it should be noted that Scheer was not seeking a fight and with two fleets of roughly equal speeds it is difficult to decisvely fight an enemy determined not to.
		On the other hand, Scheer was perhaps lucky in the chances of events and Jellicoe was unlucky and the battle began late in the day.

	Battle of Jutland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The combatants were the Kaiserliche Marine’s High Seas Fleet commanded by Vice Admiral Reinhard Scheer and the Royal Navy’s Grand Fleet commanded by Admiral of the Fleet Sir John Jellicoe.
		Deploying to the east would take the force away from Scheer, but Jellicoe's ships might be able to cross the "T" and would have the advantage of silhouetting Scheer's forces against the setting sun to the west.
		Scheer had no indication that Jellicoe was even at sea, let alone that he was bearing down from the northwest and was distracted by the intervention of Hood's ships to his north and east.

		Admiral Reinhard Scheer, recently appointed commander of the German High Seas Fleet, set off the battle when he successfully lured the British Grand Fleet into the North Sea, hoping he could wear away British naval superiority in isolated encounters.
		Scheer's plan was to lure the British ships within range of his main fleet; this phase of the battle began when he ordered Admiral Franz von Hipper to proceed northward into the North Sea.
		Scheer had, in his maneuvering, turned away from his home ports and the safety of their minefields.

	First World War.com - Battles - The Battle of Jutland, 1916
		The recently appointed commander of the German High Seas Fleet, Reinhard Scheer, had returned to the policy of making sorties against the British coast, confident that his codes were secure, and thus that the main British battle fleet, at Scapa Flow in the north of Scotland could not intervene.
		At the end of May, Scheer sortied with the entire High Seas Fleet, expected that the only serious threat he would meet was Admiral Beatty's battle cruiser squadron based on the Forth.
		Thinking themselves involved in a chase that would end with the destruction of the British battle cruisers, they found themselves under bombardment from Jellicoe's battle fleet, which they had thought to be too far north to intervene.

		Scheer twice extricated his fleet from the skilful maneuvers of Jellicoe, although he suffered heavy damage to many of his vessels while inflicting minimal damage in return.
		Many light forces were lost as Scheer crossed behind Jellicoe and steamed right through the fringe of the Grand Fleet, to reach home and “pop the champagne” on the morning of June 1.
		Scheer knew it, too, and went on to admit to his superiors that success in future fleet actions was highly unlikely.

		The combatants were the Kaiserliche Marine's High Seas Fleet, commanded by Vice Admiral Reinhard Scheer, and the Royal Navy's Grand Fleet, commanded by Admiral Sir John Jellicoe.
		The German naval strategy, according to Scheer, was: to damage the English Fleet by offensive raids against the naval forces engaged in watching and blockading the German Bight, as well as by mine-laying on the British coast and submarine attack, whenever possible.
		At 19:17, for the second time in less than an hour, Scheer turned to the west, ordering a major torpedo attack by his destroyers and a "death ride" by Scouting Group I's four remaining battlecruisers — Lützow" class="a-lk">Lützow being out of action and abandoned by Hipper — to deter a British chase.

		Because of this unique position, Hitler quickly learned the theories set forth by Scheer, the author of policies such as merchant raiders, and the theory of unrestricted submarine warfare, and became one of Scheer’s most ardent disciples.
		At Jutland, Hitler’s job was to personally report to Scheer the effects of the gunfire and the general situation of the battle.

	Reference & Education :: Why Did Jellicoe Turn Away at the Battle of Jutland? (Page 1 of 2)
		By May 1916, Admiral Scheer decided to put the entire German High Seas Fleet to sea with the intention of sending ahead the German battlecruiser squadron under Admiral Hipper as a decoy to lure out the British battlecruisers.
		However, unknown to Scheer, the British were able to decode German radio messages and, sensing German action, Admiral Jellicoe ordered the entire British Grand Fleet to sea at night to avoid the patrolling German submarines.
		Unbelievably, Scheer turned back toward the British Grand Fleet and this time Jellicoe was able to "cross the German T", concentrating nearly all the British gunfire on a single advancing line of German battleships.

	American Battleships with the Grand Fleet
		It may be recalled that at the time the AEF had yet to be involved in any major fighting and participation in the war was still something of an adventure.
		Scheer did not improve the situation with the declaration that "It is impossible for the Fleet to remain inactive in any final battle that may sooner or later precede an Armistice.
		Even if it is not to be expected that this would decisively influence the course of events, it is still, from the moral point of view, a question of honour and existence of the Navy to have done its utmost in the last battle." Plans for a final offensive were actually drawn up.

		Things came closest in the spring of 1918 when Admiral Reinhard Scheer took his charges out on April 23rd for what was to be their last sortie of the war.
		Scheer planned to intercept a British convoy which was sailing from Bergen in Norway together with the covering forces that were already at sea.
		Actions between capital ships often resulted in horrendous casualties for the losers, (at Jutland only three men out of a crew of 1031 survived after Invincible exploded), and it is fascinating to speculate on the effect such a devastating loss might have had on American public opinion.

		In December 1917, the High Seas Fleet commander, Adm. Reinhard Scheer, sent a formal request to the Imperial Naval Office to convert at least one light cruiser for use as a seaplane carrier.
		The ship should be fast enough to operate with the fleet on sorties into the North Sea, and have the endurance to remain at sea and support the minesweeping and minelaying flotillas in the Helgoland Bight with aerial spotting.
		Growing worried that the project might become entangled in bureaucratic wrangling, Scheer repeated the request at the end of the month, emphasizing its urgency.
