When World War I began in 1914\, neither the United States Navy nor American coastal shipping vessels were directly affected. By the end of the war in 1918\, three German U-boats\, U-151\, U-140\, and U-117\, had sunk a total of 10 vessels off North Carolina alone. When the U-151 arrived off the U.S. East Coast in May 1918\, it was the first foreign enemy naval vessel to invade U.S. waters since the War of 1812. World War I had come home to the United States. This is the story of the brave Americans that went up against Germany's newest weapon\, the U-boat\, and NOAA's work to honor and document these national significant shipwrecks off North Carolina's coast.
