Fate: Submarine H5 had sailed for a patrol in the Irish Sea. In the morning of Saturday, 2nd March 1918 the Submarine was sighted after it had crossed the bows of a steamer, the SS Rutherglen. The Captain of the Rutherglen believed that he had come across a U-Boat and he rammed the submarine resulting in the loss of all the crew. SS Rutherglen was herself sunk on 24th April 1918 after being torpedoed by a U-Boat whilst on passage between Gibraltar and Genoa. |

Japanese midget submarines carried out torpedo attacks during WWII at Pearl Harbour, Sydney, and Diego Suarez in Madagascar.
The Coffin Boats presents an in-depth examination of these three attacks and provides background information on Japanese midget submarines and their pilots
