That link was posted early on in this thread, Lydart, but probably doesn't hurt to have it again!

#88 and 92 - could these be hospital ships?

I've been interested in the vessels in these photos. Have been thinking that any hospital ships or transports for the wounded would be more clearly marked as such.

Trying to catch up now with everything on this thread - always amazed at how much has been done while I've been sleeping  ;D

Photograph # 113

This looks like the remains of the Turkish gunship MARMARISS which was run aground and captured in June 1915. It compares with a photograph from the Illustrated War News of October 1915 (as shown on http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=121164 ).
