U155 at Tower Bridge

1 May

U155 was launched at the Flensburger Schiffbau yard in Germany on 28 March, 1916, but was seized after the Armistice on 24 November 1918 and taken to Britain, before subsequently being broken up at Morecambe in 1922. She sank 66 Allied merchant ships, with a combined tonnage of 188,101 tons, during her career. Photo taken in 1919 in Tower Hill, London, England, GB.
