54 THE LEGION IN GEORGIA His Majesty's Ship Otranto Georgia suffered her greatest catastrophe, on October 6, 1918, when H. M. S. Otranto sank off the coast of Scotland. With her perished one hundred and forty native and adopted Georgians, who were members of the units consisting of the newly trained coast artillerymen from Fort Screven, Geor- gia. The Otranto was formerly a mail packet, plying between Liverpool and Australia, but, at the beginning of the World War, she was converted into an armoured cruiser by the British Government. Her first taste of battle occurred off the coast of Chili, when she, the cruisers Monmouth, Good Hope and Glas- cow encountered a German squadron. In the ensuing battle, the Monmouth and Good Hope were sunk, but the Glascow and the Otranto escaped. As the flagship of thirteen transports, under the command of Captain Davidson, H. M. S. Otranto sailed from Hoboken, New Jersey, on September 25th, 1918. She had on board seven hundred and one Ameri- can soldiers, the greater number of these be- ing men trained in coast artillery tactics at Fort Screven, Ga. Soon after the departure from the American coast, a French transport, the La France, left the convoy to proceed along the southern route to Europe. Even at the outset, this voyage seemed to have been an ill-fated one for the Otranto. On the night of October 1st; all ships running without lights; the Otranto rammed the French ship Croisine. After the removal of the crew from the stricken ship, the Otranto sank it by gun fire to prevent other ships from encountering it. On October 6th, as the convoy approached the strait between Ireland and Scotland, leading into the Irish Sea, the ships were ordered to form into a single file. This change of alignment was executed with great difficulty on account of a raging storm. As the line was formed, the Ot- ranto was the eleventh ship; the Kashmir, a former Peninsular and Oriental liner, bringing up the rear. Being an armoured ship, the position of the Otranto was to the rear, and she ordered the Kashmir to precede her. The Kashmir attempted to do this, but she became out of control. A high wave brought the bow of the Kashmir against the Otranto, tearing a hole in her side, below the water line, and crushing much of her upper struc- tures. The raging seas soon separated the vessels. This happened at 9 A. M. On the Ot- ranto all the men were immediately ordered to their stations to await further commands. The engine room of the Otranto was soon flooded, which left the ship at the mercy of the waves. The sea was too high to launch life boats. And to make matters worse, the Kashmir, though also badly damaged, con- tinued on her way, unmindful of the great damage she had done to the Otranto. This, however, was in accordance with a standing order of the sea at that time, that no vessel shall remain at the scene of a disaster for fear of becoming a victim of a lurking sub- marine.

54 TH E LEGION IN GEORGIA

His Majesty's Ship OtrantoGeorgia suffered her greatest catastrophe,

on October 6, 1918, when H . M . S. O tran to sank off the coast of Scotland. W ith her perished one hundred and forty native and adopted Georgians, who were members of the units consisting of the newly trained coast artillerymen from F ort Screven, Geor­gia.

The Otranto was formerly a mail packet, plying between Liverpool and Australia, but, at the beginning of the W orld W ar, she was converted into an armoured cruiser by the British Government. H e r first taste of battle occurred off the coast of Chili, when she, the cruisers Monmouth, Good H ope and Glas- cow encountered a German squadron. In the ensuing battle, the M onm outh and Good Hope were sunk, but the Glascow and the O tranto escaped.

As the flagship of thirteen transports, under the command of Captain Davidson, H . M. S. Otranto sailed from Hoboken, New Jersey, on September 25th, 1918. She had on board seven hundred and one Ameri­can soldiers, the greater number of these be­ing men trained in coast artillery tactics at Fort Screven, Ga. Soon after the departure from the American coast, a French transport, the La France, left the convoy to proceed along the southern route to Europe. Even at the outset, this voyage seemed to have been an ill-fated one for the Otranto. On the night of October 1st; all ships running without lights; the O tranto rammed the French ship Croisine. A fter the removal of the crew from the stricken ship, the O tranto sank it by gun fire to prevent other ships from encountering it. On October 6th, as the convoy approached the strait between Ireland and Scotland, leading into the Irish Sea, the ships were ordered to form into a single file. This change of alignment was executed with great difficulty on account of a raging storm. As the line was formed, the O t­ranto was the eleventh ship; the Kashmir, a former Peninsular and Oriental liner, bringing up the rear. Being an armoured ship, the position of the Otranto was to the rear,

and she ordered the Kashmir to precede her. The Kashmir attempted to do this, but she became out of control. A high wave brought the bow of the Kashmir against the Otranto, tearing a hole in her side, below the water line, and crushing much of her upper struc­tures. The raging seas soon separated the vessels. This happened at 9 A. M . On the O t­ranto all the men were immediately ordered to their stations to await further commands. The engine room of the O tran to was soon flooded, which left the ship at the mercy of the waves. The sea was too high to launch life boats. And to make matters worse, the Kashmir, though also badly damaged, con­tinued on her way, unmindful of the great damage she had done to the O tranto. This, however, was in accordance with a standing order of the sea at tha t time, tha t no vessel shall remain at the scene of a disaster for fear of becoming a victim of a lurking sub­marine. I t was in this vicinity, in the early pa rt of the same year, that the Tuscania, loaded with American soldiers, was tor­pedoed and sunk by a German submarine. On board the O tran to perfect order pre­vailed, and the men behaved heroically. They fully realized the desperate position they were in; aboard a sinking ship, at the mercy of a furious gale and buffeted by high seas, and abandoned by the other ships of the con­voy. W ith the flooding of the engine rooms, the radio was put out of commission and no appeal for help could be made, if it were dared; for signals of distress might draw enemy ships to the scene. Rain and clouded skies also added to the terror of their situa­tion.

I t was at this point that a flotilla of twelve destroyers were to meet and escort the con­voy into port. T he intensity of the storm kept these ships in po r t and only one ven­tured into the open sea for the appointed rendezvous. This was the Mounsey, a Brit­ish destroyer, under the command of Lieu­tenant Craven. A t 11 A. M., two hours after the disaster had occurred, the Mounsey reached the Otranto. A t once Lieutenant

Craven realized tha t all usual methods for the rescue of the men, either from the sea or from the rock bound coast, were use­less, but he conceived and successfully exe­cuted a most daring feat. By semaphore sig­nals he ordered all the life boats of the O tranto partly lowered, endwise, to act as buffers, and as he would bring his ship along side the Otranto, the men were ordered to jump onto the deck of the Mounsey. Four times this movement was executed, but not, however, without grea t damage being done to the rescue ship. T he davits of the Otranto tore away the radio,; smashed the cabin and bridge and destroyed the compass of the de­stroyer. By this method, Lieutenant Craven rescued three hundred and ten Americans, two hundred and thirty-six of the crew of the Otranto, thirty French sailors and one British officer— a total of five hundred and seventy- seven men. These men were packed aboard his small craft, which ordinarily accommo­dated seventy odd men. Further overloading of the destroyer was deemed most dangerous ; it was shipping water and it was feared tha t the seams of her hull had been opened by the constant battering against the O tranto . Lieutenant Craven then set out for Belfast, Ireland. Impeded by high seas, uncertain as to

his course due to a smashed compass and overcast skies, the Mounsey reached Bel­fast a fter a hard run of fourteen hours, a trip which normally would have taken two or three hours. Soon afte r the de­parture of the Mounsey, the O tran to sank. Some of the men left aboard succeeded in reaching the Isle of Islay, Scotland, where they were tenderly cared for by the inhabi­tants. M any bodies of the dead, how­ever, were washed ashore; one hundred and seventy-five being found just a few hours after the accident. These and other bodies later being found were initially interred alongside the American soldiers, victims of the torpedoed Tuscania, who also were bur­ied on the Isle of Islay. T he ir bodies were later taken up and either sent to the United States for reinterment, or removed to the American Cemetery, Brookwood, Surrey, England. Only four American graves now remain on Islay. H igh on the M ull of Oa, Isle of Islay, off the west coast of Scotland, stands a memorial— a round tower, similar in appearance to a light house— dedicated to the memory of the American soldiers who perished in the two great maritime disasters of 1918, suffered by the U nited States.

The sinking of the O tran to is listed among the major marine disasters where a total of four hundred and thirty-one lives were lost.

On October 9, 1918, the rescued Ameri­can soldiers from the O tranto, who were physically fit, were ordered to Winchester, England, where they remained in the Amer­ican Camp until November 17, when, being ordered to France, they were dispersed

among the various units; and as members of other units they eventually returned to the United States for final discharge from ser­vice.

In the Departm ent of Georgia, T he Am er­ican Legion, Post No. 115, at Nashville, Ber­rien County, Georgia, is named Otranto, as many of its youthful citizens lost their lives in this disaster.
