This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

German U-boat American 1918 Campaign-- Part 2: A Follow Up Attack
Encouraged by the success of the U-151, the Germans sent the U-156, U-117 and a large Type 139, U-cruisers u-140 were dispatched on similar missions, but the U.S. Navy was now ready for them, and the hunting was not as good. The U-156 was lost with all hands on the return voyage when it is thought she must have struck a mine off Bergen, Norway, on 15 September 1918.
Another trio of long range submarines, the U-155, U-152 and U-cruiser U-139 were making their way across the Atlantic Ocean in November 1918 when the war ended and they turned back.
