Description
English: This event occured on 8 August 1917 roughly 130 miles south-west of Ushant in the Bay of Biscay. Dunraven did not manage to damage UC-71 but was significantly damaged herself, to the extent that she sunk early on 10 August after the British destroyer HMS Christopher had begun to tow her towards Plymouth. Two of the crew members - Lieutenant Charles Bonner and Petty Officer Ernest Pitcher - were awarded Victoria Crosses by ballot to represent the efforts of the Dunraven's crew.
