I love this story Tara, rerun or no. Maybe that was the last casualty, or one of the last casualties of the European theater during WW2? And, it happened so close to American shores. Thank you Tara.
It is easy to forget how close the War came to CONUS. Thank you, Tara Ross, for an episode reminding us of the value of having an ocean on both vulnerable borders.
The last victory was a Naval victory. Somehow, that is no surprise considering that a submarine all too often had patchy communications back then. But it was in pretty shallow water. Thanks for sharing such an interesting story, Tara Ross!
Run silent, run deep. Well, they weren’t deep enough ! Tough way for the Germans to go, but no sympathy here. Also, no mention of there were American casualties?

Even if it’s a repeat, Tara, it’s still good to read again the historical events. This is a very interesting account of action taken after victory had been achieved. Information traveled much slower at that time. It seems comical from this perspective, but at the time it was very serious.
How'd they get those spiny little hedgehogs in the launch tubes? 😉
😂
It was a matter of war, finding and executing an enemy combatant who was in American waters, sinking maritime shipping. Well done, Coast Guard!
Another very interesting and nearly unheard of story that occurred at the end of WWII.
Keep ‘em coming!
Thank you Tara!

Four Americans killed when the torpedo(es?) hit, another eight went down with the ship.
The casualties of war always the heartbreaking part.

There were casualties aboard Black Point. 12 men went down with the ship.
The loss of life is the hardest part of war.
