Strange that Messimer in his book The Merchant U-Boat, refers to him

H.Klees was chief engineer on Deutschland on the two trips to the USA in 1916.
Heinrich Klees was ob. masch. on UC47 when it was sunk on 18 Nov 1917. Are these two names one and the same man?? Are there other men that served on
Deutschland and died in other boats??

If by "uboats" you mean "submarines", then FOUCALT qualifies as sunk
on 15 September 1916 by A-H seaplanes. Foucalt was a French submersible.

The source just came to me; must be old age getting to me.
The source is histomar.net, the great database of one Yves Dufeil.
Site says "sunk with San Francesco so presumably UC20". Nothing about
only being damaged however.

Hi Guys,
The ship pictured is the New York
built for HAL in 1924. City of New York was launched in 1888 for INMAN line and
sold in 1893 to AMERICAN line and renamed NEW YORK.
The ship built in 1883 was never owned by HAL.

Thanks Michael,
Should have figured that if it was a uboat, the author of
the article would have named the uboat.
