12 October-3 November 1917: The Germans won victories on land & sea in the Baltic, conquering the West Estonian Archipelago (Saaremaa/Ösel, Hiiumaa/Dagö, Muhumaa/Mohn, & Vormsi/Worms) from the Provisional Government via Operation Albion (12-20 October) & defeating both the Russian Navy & a Royal Navy submarine flotilla in the Battle of Moon Sound (16 October-3 November).
Lest we forget.
