Max Schultz


Max Konrad Felix Schultz was a German Korvettenkapitän, commander of the VIth Torpedoboat Flotilla in World War I. His ship, the torpedo boat V 69, was badly damaged in action with Royal Navy forces on 23 January 1917 and he was killed. The German destroyer Z3 was named Max Schultz in his honour.
During the Battle of Jutland he had led his flotilla on a courageous attack against Jellicoe's battleships in order to relieve pressure on the German battlecruisers.
