July 2008 The page on Subchasers Built for France has been updated with some new details, including a clip from a New York Times article published in February 1918 on the remarkable journey across the Atlantic Ocean of submarine chaser SC 28.
This chaser and one other (SC 319, lost) were separated from the convoy during a storm. The crew of SC 28, their engines being out of commission, rigged a makeshift sail using bed covers, and arrived 33 days later in the Azores.
