In 1912, young naval officer Chester W. Nimitz wrote about submarine tactics; in May 1915, he personally experienced the impact of such warfare via a unique connection to the sinking of the Lusitania. Naval History Magazine: link

That is a truly remarkable story. Thank you for sharing it. History has so many stories such as these, and many more that will never be shared as well.

A very touching story.It was an eerie connection to one of the greatest admirals of the 20th century. Hornfischer described him as the "essential man in the Pacific. May all these people RIP.
