The French battleship Bouvet, British battleship HMS Irresistible and the HMS Ocean struck mines and sank off of the Dardanelles. The Gaulois was beached after striking a mine.
Loss of life was heavy.
The battleship HMS Dreadnought rammed and sake the U-29.
Russian fighter pilot Alexander Kazakov used a grapnel hook to hook his aircraft to a German Albatros in flight. The mechanism didn't work and he ended up ramming the plane.
In spite of stunts like that, Kazakov survived the war only to die in an airshow in 1919.
