Historical
PHotos
T here have been several movies about German submarines and how they looked
back in the day, but here is an actual picture taken from 1918.
SM UB-110 was one of Germanys infamous U-boats. It was commissioned into
the Imperial Navy on March 23rd, 1918. Its tour of duty was short.
The SM UB-110 was depth charged, rammed and sunk by the HMS Garry on July
19th, 1918 while under the command of Kapitnleutnant Werner Furbringer. The SM
UB-110 was one of the last U-boats to be sunk during the War, and possibly the very
last one.

According to Furbringer, the Garry opened fire on the surviving, unarmed crew of
his ship after it was sunk. 23 men were killed in the sinking and alleged aftermath.

CEO Sergio Marchionne in the White House, reports Reuters.
We have a very big push on to have auto plants and other plants many
other plants, Trump told reporters during the meeting. Its happening.
During the event, Trump reiterated his commitment to cutting taxes, re-
ducing unnecessary regulations, and making it easier for automakers and
other companies to conduct business in the U.S. Although Trump has ruf-
fled Fords feathers in the past,
Fields noted the industry is
looking forward to working

policies that hes forwarding,
Fields told reporters. He also
expressed his support for
Trumps withdrawing from the
Trans-Pacific Partnership agree-
ment, which the auto exec says
doesnt take into account cur-
rency manipulation.
Trump has come under fire for
threatening to impose a 35-per-
cent tariff on vehicles imported
to the U.S. Although the three
American automakers have an-
nounced new investments in the
U.S., theyre still committed to
making vehicles in Mexico.

Ford recently canceled plans
to build a new plant in Mexico,
opting instead to invest $700
million in its Flat Rock plant in
Michigan. Instead of building a new plant in Mexico, Ford will expand an
existing plant there to accommodate production of the Ford Focus, which
has traditionally been made in Michigan. Fields said the decision was not
a political move, but instead a reaction to slow sales of small cars.
