German destroyer Z2 Georg Thiele

The German destroyer Z2 Georg Thiele was a Type 1934 destroyer built for the German Kriegsmarine in the mid-1930s. She was named after Lieutenant Commander Georg Thiele who commanded the Seventh Half Flotilla of torpedo boats in the Battle off Texel in October 1914. At the beginning of World War II, the ship was initially deployed to blockade the Polish coast, but she was quickly transferred to the German Bight to lay minefields in German waters.
