Captain Frank Brandt (2 October, 1871 – 1 November 1914) was an officer of the Royal Navy during the First World War.

Life & Career

In 1903, it appears that Lieutenant (T) Brandt made helpful suggestions for a Graduated Sight Bar to better help torpedo ranges be judged.[1]

Promoted to Captain on 31 December, 1909, Brandt was appointed in command of the armoured cruiser Monmouth in July 1914,[2] and died when she sank during the Battle of Coronel.
