EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration portrays the intricate process of mine-laying from a Mine-Laying Submarine during the First World War, in the year 1915. The submarine, a crucial weapon in the naval warfare of that time, is shown releasing a mine into the depths of the sea. The mine, an explosive device designed to destroy enemy ships, leaves the submarine and begins its journey to the surface. As the mine rises, a sinker attached to it falls away, allowing the mine to reach the surface unnoticed. The sinker, which had been used to keep the mine at a specific depth during its journey from the submarine, is now free to fall back to the seabed. Meanwhile, the plummet, a heavy weight attached to the mine to pull it to the required depth below the surface, begins its descent to the sea bed. The mine, now pulled by the weight of the plummet, sinks to the bottom, ready to lie in wait for unsuspecting enemy ships. This illustration provides a fascinating glimpse into the complex and dangerous work of mine-laying during the Great War. The mine-laying submarine was a significant innovation in naval warfare, allowing for the deployment of mines without the risk of revealing the location of the submarine itself. The stages involved in the mine-laying process were crucial to the success of this deadly tactic, and this illustration beautifully captures the essence of this important moment in military history.
