Talk:Russian battleship Knyaz Suvorov

Destroyer Buiny and survivors
There were both Knyaz Suvorov battleship officers and squadron staff officers on the Knyaz Suvorov. While squadron staff officers (those who were alive by that time) moved to destroyer (this is OK because squadron staff may be transferred to another ship of the squadron), Knyaz Suvorov's officers stayed on the battleship.

Noel Fairchild Busch. The Emperor's sword: Japan vs. Russia in the Battle of Tsushima.  "Three members of Rozhdestvensky's staff — de Colongue, Semenoff, and Flag Lieutenant Leontiev — jumped across to the destroyer at the same time, as did a dozen or so of the Suvorov seamen."

J. N. Westwood. Witnesses of Tsushima "Although a handful of the SUVOROV'S crew had jumped on to the BUINY, already overcrowded with more than 200 survivors from the OSLYABYA, most stayed aboard, including the three remaining officers.""

 "When destroyer “Buinyi” approached the battered flagman “Suvorov” to pick up the wounded Rozhestvensky and his staff officers, lieutenants Bogdanov and Vyrubov, both officers from the “Suvorov”, and the still able-bodied sailors asked the destroyer commander to move away from the doomed battleship..."

With current revision "..took off the wounded officers from Knyaz Suvorov, including Rozhestvensky, leaving an unwounded midshipman in command..." reader may get impression that some of the Knyaz Suvorov officers left their ship and crew, and that is just wrong. --DonaldDuck (talk) 05:58, 29 December 2012 (UTC)
