Action of 21 May 1918

The Action of 21 May 1918 was a naval engagement of World War I fought between an American armed yacht and a German submarine in the Atlantic Ocean off Spain.
==Background==
In May 1918, the Great War had been raging for four years and the Germans were making every attempt possible to sink enemy shipping which fueled the war in Europe. On 24 May 1918, the fight was still at hand when —under Lieutenant Commander M. B. McCord—sighted a distinctive oil slick while escorting the slow British steamer ''Danse'' north from La Pallice to Quiberon Bay. Unknown at the time, a German submarine—commanded by Lieutenant Commander Wilhelm Kisewetter—was nearby.
''Danse'' was about behind the main convoy of allied merchant ships, making about with ''Christabel'' off her port bow. The North Atlantic was smooth, the weather was clear and there was no wind.
