Summary

[edit]
Description The German Imperial Navy submarine UC 5 on display at New York City (USA). UC 5 was a German Type UC I U-boat and commissioned on 19 June 1915 at Hamburg. She served in the First World War under the command of Herbert Pustkuchen (June 1915 - December 1915) and Ulrich Mohrbutter (December 1915 - April 1916). UC 5 had an impressive career, with 29 ships sunk for a total of 36,288 tons on 29 patrols. She ran aground on Shipwash Shoal while on patrol on 27 April 1916 (51°59′N 1°38′E) and was scuttled, but the charges failed to explode. Her crew were captured by the British destroyer HMS Firedrake and the submarine was displayed at Temple Pier on the Thames river, and later New York for propaganda purposes.
