Hubert Lynes

Rear Admiral Hubert Lynes CB, CMG (27 November 1874 – 10 November 1942) was a British admiral whose First World War service was notable for his direction of the Zeebrugge and Ostend raids designed to neutralise the German-held port of Bruges, which was used as a raiding base against the British coastline by Imperial German Navy surface and submarine raiders. Throughout his service life and during retirement, Lynes was a noted and experienced ornithologist who contributed to numerous books on the subject and was in his lifetime considered the leading expert on African birds.
==Naval career==
Born in 1874, Hubert Lynes was given to a career at sea from a young age. He was educated at Stubbington House School, an establishment with strong connections to the navy, and enlisted in the Royal Navy aged 13 in 1888. He rose through the ranks over the next 17 years until in 1905 he was promoted to captain and placed in command of the small Eclipse class cruiser in the Mediterranean. He commanded her until 1908, when he returned to England for a period ashore before taking command of the screw sloop on the China Station in 1910.〔 Remaining on ''Cadmus'' until 1912, he was again returned to a shore station, where he remained until the outbreak of the First World War.
An experienced naval officer, Lynes was given command of the brand-new ''Arethusa'' Class cruiser , which completed construction in early 1915 and served in the Atlantic for the next year. In 1916 whilst hunting German U-boats, ''Penelope'' was torpedoed and badly damaged by , forcing extensive repairs.〔 This freed Lynes for a new post, that of second in command to Admiral Roger Keyes, a dynamic officer who was in charge of the "Allied Naval and Marine Forces" a department of the Admiralty which planned and conducted raids and commando-style operations on German-held territory.
