experience from Doggerbank battle
turret hatches open
ammunition fires spread
cold blooded Willhelm Heidkamp to open the flooding valves in the ammo chamber
valves, glowing red from the heat of the fire, with his bare hands

not only he saved sms seydlitz, but the germans knew now, men flee fire and so they bolted all hatches shut in the turret system where fires can spread

brits didnt know till end war because all ships with turret fires blew up, no survivors who could tell.
