War at Sea

British Strategy

Germany could not match Britain’s navy – had set up blockades food and supplies could not get to Germany Germany retaliates with U-boats U-boats (submarine) were their most dangerous weapon U - Boats

German Strategy was to choke supplies going to and from Britain Difficult to detect and interfered with British ships War at Sea = who controls supply lines?

Later in the war equipped with torpedoes guided missile that happens to "fly" underwater could completely destroy British ships

Convoys Conveys = group of ships British and allied ships gathered in Halifax Cross the Atlantic together carrying supplies Protected by navy vessels from U-boat attacks Convoys

Merchant Marine Merchant Marine: ferry munitions and food to Britain Many merchant sailors lost lives though not officially part of the armed forces Merchant Marine

The Lusitania British passenger ship sunk by U-boat in 1915 Killed 1200 people including Americans and Canadians Germany declares they will sink any ship that enters the warzone - “unrestricted submarine warfare” Major reason for United States to join the war in 1917 The Lusitania
