Description | British destroyers v. German U-boat by G. H. Davis |
Details |
The long arm of the Royal Navy: a German U-boat meets its end in the Atlantic, British destroyers having picked up its trail 120 miles away. An SOS from a British merchantman which the U-boat had attacked gave the destroyers a clue to the submarine's whereabouts.
