Man who sank Lusitania also visited Cork in 1916

Congratulations to all who were involved in the publication of the Lusitania commemorative supplement in Friday’s Irish Examiner.

It was a very interesting and informative read.

One of the things I was unaware of, until I read the supplement, was the connection between Captain Raimund Weissbach, who commanded the German submarine U-19 that brought Roger Casement to Banna Strand, and the Lusitania.
