Imperial German Navy Tactical Orders

The small selection below has been transcribed from the document:

CB1548 [later OU6243] German Navy Tactical Orders, translated by the Royal Navy's Intelligence Division of the Naval Staff, April 1920.

The document itself is ADM 186/55 in the Public Record Office. Worth noting is the statement:

The following are translations of German orders recovered from ships sunk at Scapa. Some orders are undated. Those are believed to have been those which had been a long time in force.
