French ship Guichen : ウィキペディア英語版 | French cruiser Guichen
''Guichen'' was a protected cruiser of the French Navy launched in 1897, commissioned in 1899 and retired in 1921. It was constructed by Ateliers et Chantiers de la Loire at Saint-Nazaire. ''Guichen'' first steamed from Saint-Nazaire to undergo sea trials out of Toulon. In September 1903 she carrieded President Émile Loubet to Britain for an official visit. In 1913 she was converted into a training ship for boatswains at Brest. She was in the Channel at the start of the First World War, but in 1915 she was transferred to the 3rd blockading squadron off Syria. In September, under Captain Joseph Brisson, she helped evacuate Armenian resistors from Musa Dagh after one of her crew spotted an Armenian flag flying over the fortress. She conveyed her refugees to Port Said. It was, according to Lord Bryce, "the only story ... with a happy ending" in his report on the treatment of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire.〔Merrill D. Peterson, ''"Starving Armenians": America and the Armenian Genocide, 1915–1930 and After'' (University of Virginia Press, 2004), 43.〕 In November 1916 ''Guichen'' and ''Lutétia'' transported a Russian expeditionary force to the Salonika Front. In 1917 ''Guichen'' transported some of the ''Armée d'Orient'' from Taranto to Bizerte. In 1919 she was sent to the Black Sea as part of the Allied intervention in the Russian Civil War, but she suffered a mutiny, led by Charles Tillon, future leader of the Communist Party.〔Marcel Monribot, Charles Tillon and Virgile Vuillemin, ("The Black Sea Revolt" ) ''Revolutionary History'' 8, 2 (2002), trans. by Ian Birchall, originally published as "Les mutineries de la Mer Noire 1919–1969" in ''Les Cahiers de Mai'' (1969).〕 She was retired in 1921, and condemned and sold at Brest in 1922. ==Notes==
