24th
November 1917 Assisted in the destruction of U 48 in the English Channel.
Whilst
waiting for the moon to set U48 drifted and eventually went aground at high
tide on the Goodwin Sands. She was discovered at dawn by British Patrol Craft.
After a brief exchange of gunfire, scuttling charges were set and the crew
abandoned the U-boat.
Nineteen
crew died and 17 survived. U48 had sunk 34 ships (103,552 tons) on 8 patrols
(warships excluded) The shifting sands of the Goodwins occasionally expose her.
This
incident was recorded by personnel onboard the PEEL CASTLE on November 24th,
1917. At 7am a call to action stations. Received a signal that a submarine was
north of the Gull light-vessel, so proceeded there at full speed and found a
German submarine ashore on the Goodwin Sands. The mine-sweeping drifter
FEASIBLE; when sweeping the channel off the North Foreland, fouled the sweep.
Presently a submarine broke the surface of the water, on
which
the sweeper opened fire. The submarine returned the fire, and as the water was
too shoal to dive, attempted to escape by zig-zagging, when she ran ashore on
the Goodwins. The other sweepers closed round, and shot one end off the
submarine. When PEEL CASTLE arrived, the crew were in the conning tower with
their hands up, so we stood-by for a while, and a torpedo boat came and took
off eighteen prisoners out of a crew of forty men.About 4.30 pm one of the
boarding officers went to see the submarine (which was then dry on the sands)
and when walking over the deck, was surprised to see a man coming up from below
and staggering about. The officer brought him back to the PEEL CASTLE, where
the doctor patched him up, and sent him ashore to the hospital, but he was so
badly damaged that he died three days afterwards. He was the boatswain of the
submarine, and could speak English perfectly.
