Re: identify German submarine sunken Mar 10, 1918

Thomas,

UB 58 was sunk on that date, but not at that location. Damant's divers would eventually discover the wreck of UB 58 some months laer, but misdescribed it. (The wreck has been relocated and positively identified in recent years).

The trawler attack at 50.24N 0.13.10W may refer to a French attack that could possibly have sunk UB 54 (or not). If not, it's a false claim.

Best wishes,
Michael
