Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Keravnos served in the Royal Hellenic Navy from 1912 - 1919. She was originally the German destroyer V-5. The ship, along with one of her six sister ships of V class destroyers, Nea Genea, was ordered from Germany. They were purchased before entering service in the German Navy, from the German shipyard Vulcan AG in Stettin, when the Balkan Wars were underway. Later, during World War I, Greece belatedly entered the war on the side of the Triple Entente and, due to Greece's neutrality the two Ex-German V Class ships were seized by the Allies in October, 1916, taken over by the French in November and served in the French Navy from 1917-18. By 1918, they were back on escort duty under Greek colors, mainly in the Aegean Sea. With the Armistice in 1918, Keravnos was ordered to Constantinople and later to Russia during the Russian Civil War.
