Talk:SM UB-110

Number of dead from sinking
In this article I found that "23 crew members died in the event." In the article on HMS Garry (1905), the version is "UB-110 sank with the loss of 13 dead and an unknown number of survivors." Officially the vessel's complement is given as 3 officers and up to 31 men (max. total 34). Lightoller states in his eyewitness account (chapter 44 of Titanic and Other Ships that 15 survivors were picked up out of the water. Perhaps someone with access to the official sources could clarify. Bjenks (talk) 08:52, 11 August 2014 (UTC)

Ships hit by UB-110
Added a section to include the list of ships hit by UB-110 during its operational lifetime, including the number of resulting casualties (30 civilians transporting iron ore).Telenarn (talk) 12:39, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

This and that.
German submarines were prefixed SMU (Seiner Majestät Unterseeboot), the German for "His Majesty's Submarine," from 1903 to 1919. So, for example, 110 was SMU 110. The SM prefix was not used during WWII, since German warships were not His Majesty's.

We have to bear in mind that Furbringer's claims about the "massacre" are a single source, so we must make it clear that his allegations are just that. Which raises the question of whether one can be a survivor of an alleged massacre. If it's only alleged, aren't (alleged) survivors "alleged survivors" (of the "alleged massacre")?
