BERLIN, Jan. 5 GN.S0-Sur-
Vivors of the Tuscania were kind
enough to invite me to their
meeting on February 5, commem-
Grating the sinking of the vessel
by my submarine, the UT.
The invitation stresses the fact
that there are no thoughts OF
bitterness or revenge lingering in
the hearts of the survivors OF
that catastrophe.
The sinking of the TuScania
was pure luck from our point
of view at the time.
We had been cruising off the
Northern Irish Coast for several
weeks, without once having TO
dive to save ourselves from
attacks by British cruisers.
Heads for Channel
Having given up hope OF sight
ing prey in that area, decided
to head for the entrance to the
North Channel, intending to enter
the Irish Sea from the north.
At $50 p. m, on February 5,
1918, 1 decided to scan the
horizon for one last look at the
Atlantic.
With surprise and trembling I
spotted an enormous cloud OF
black smoke on the western
horizon, heading directly toward
us.
I ordered the U-77 swung
around and headed directly to-
ward the smoke cloud.
I, Soon I was able to detect a
huge seagoing caravan, headed
by a medium-sized vessel, followed
by a larger white vessel with two
smokestacks, large cruiser with
four smokestacks, and from six
to eight smaller vessels.
The whole caravan was flanked
with what looked to us like
myriads Of destroyers.
Decides to Attack
cruised above water back and
forth and in front of the ad-
vancing transports, trying to
ascertain the chances of attack.
At 7 p. m, resolved to attack.
Dusk made visibility poor. There
was constant danger we might
underestimate the speed of the
transports and be run down in
their path.
I had taken a good look at the
largest transport before submerg-
ing, but once we were beneath
the water, could not find it
through the periScope.
2 TOrpedOes Fired
My hands trembled as I moved
the sighting apparatus, because
knew that if I stayed much
longer where we we're the sub
marine would be rammed and
sunk.
Suddenly vague ghos tly
shadow crept across the sighting
mirror. Then atop this shadow
appeared the outlines of a smoke
stack. I recognized this shadow
as the largest transport.
I Immediately ordered two tor
pedoes fired. 1t was then
7:4O p. m.
The crew and I listened in
suspense. Then a terrific detona-
ton told us that we had hit our
target.
At 7:57 p. m. we returned to
the surface. We saw the stricken
Tuscania listing heavily to star
board.
