** Japanese admiral Togo Heihachiro was a keen student of Britain's naval academies, which helped make the British Royal Navy one of the world's finest fleets. He knew the era's most advanced naval strategies and tactics, which allowed him to track the Russian Navy's progress, choose where and when to fight and outmaneuver his Russian foes during the battle itself. The Battle of Tsushima was a vicious CurbStompBattle where Japan lost only three torpedo boats while it sank 21 Russian ships of different types, captured 7 more and disarmed 6 others. Admiral Togo was richly rewarded for his victory, and he's remembered as one of Japan's great naval heroes. In his journal, Togo wrote that he considered himself the reincarnation of British admiral Horatio Nelson, a FatherNeptune in his own right.
