Description: AWM caption : Indian Ocean. An unidentified Royal Navy Bramble class gunboat (possibly Gunboat Rinaldo [sic. ?]) in the Indian Ocean off the mouth of the Rufigi River in German East Africa. This ship was requested by Vice Admiral H King-Hall to strengthen the British blockade of the German Navy cruiser SMS Konigsberg. The Konigsberg had taken shelter in the river, south of Dar es Salaam, in December 1914 and withstood the blockade until finally destroyed by HMS Severn on 12 July 1915.
