He was the torpedo officer on the German U-boat, the , who saw to the preparation and firing of the torpedo that sank the on 7 May 1915. He went on to become a successful commander, sinking 36 ships before being captured when his submarine was sunk by the Royal Navy. ==''Lusitania''== Born in Breslau on 16 September 1886, Weisbach joined the ''Kaiserliche Marine''. He was the watch officer aboard ''U-20'' under ''Kapitänleutnant'' Walther Schwieger, when the ''Lusitania'' was torpedoed and sunk on 7 May 1915. Weisbach was awarded the Iron Cross 1st Class. Weisbach provided a concise account of his recollection of the sinking of the ''Lusitania'' which was published in ''The Irish Times'' in 1970 after his death. After the torpedo was fired, he was called to the periscope. He said the explosion which he saw was far more severe than could normally have been expected. He surmised then and still believed in 1966 (when being interviewed) that the liner must have been carrying a significant cargo of high-explosives.
