Sinking of the ship Falaba, March 28th 1915.
The sinking of the Falaba'. Lurking menacingly in the background, as if to make sure it had finished the job, the U-boat that had torpedoed the passenger boat. The British liner Falaba was torpedoed by a German U-boat in the waters around Britain, an event important for two main reasons. Firstly, it marked the escalation of the U-boat campaign against shipping around the British coast. Secondly and perhaps more importantly, it caused the first official death of a US citizen. The man, Leon C. Thrasher, drowned after jumping from the sinking ship. His death caused outrage in the US, the government calling for Strict accountability'. Although the US had feared such an event for some time, it focussed attention onto the potential threat to their citizens abroad, a threat became far more real with the sinking of the liner the Lusitania a short while later. © Mirrorpix
