Fate: Submarine C31 was sent to the area off Zeebrugge in Belgium for a two-day patrol on the 4th January 1915 with orders to report at Harwich on the 7th. Nothing more was heard from C31 and on the 10th and 11th January two destroyers (Lurcher and Firedrake) attempted to find out what had happened but were thwarted by the stormy weather prevailing. It was thought that the submarine had been sunk by enemy patrol craft but it may well have been mined. The date of the loss of C31 is accepted as being Thursday 7th January 1915. |

This fascinating series from HISTORY™ will explore the world of the US Navy Submariner in World War II.
We'll dive deep to periscope depth in the Pacific and hunt a convoy of Japanese freighters, surface in the Atlantic and fire upon a stricken German U-Boat, sneak into Tokyo Bay and wreck havoc upon the Japanese Fleet and learn about the men who lived and hunted under the sea, while discussing the different submarines and their use in war.
Plus we'll explore the tactics used to destroy the enemy and how submarines contributed to the final defeat of Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany.
Take a journey beneath the waves and discover the incredible story behind The Submarines of World War II: The Silent Service.
Over six hours of footage across four discs tell the fascinating stories of the submarines of World War II.
