The Last and Longest Journey

The Last and Longest Journey

Even ships grow old and have to be destroyed. The last journey of a ship, which people have worked in a grown to love, is always a sad occasion. The F. S. 949 had not been a great liner, or even a remarkable merchant ship. She had sunk more ships during the war than any other submarine. In one famous battle, she had sunk six ships in twenty-four hours. Alone, she had gone out to meet a convoy of merchant ships. Though these ships was protected by destroyers, the F. S. 949 had sunk four of them before she was located. During the long battle that followed, two of the destroyers were sunk and the tittle submarine was only slightly damaged. Now, under a cold, grey sky, people were watching silently as she came into the harbor. She would soon make her last journey out to sea before resting for-ever in the depths she knew so well.
