The American liner attacked a German U boat in British waters on April 1. Gunfire by naval guards reportedly destroyed the submarine at about 1,000 yards after the captain ordered full speed ahead to ram it.
Captain Ree recalls a clash at sea where a submarine appeared close to the vessel. The crew fired a shell that exploded near the sub, which submerged and then vanished as the periscope was sighted. The engagement lasted minutes with heavy spray and foam masking the deck.
