During the first several months of U.S. participation in World War
II, our East Coast was menaced by German's u-boats. The submarines
were sinking an average of a ship-a-day and they had suffered no
loses. But at midnight on April 13, 1942, the U.S.S. Roper
discovered the U-85 recharging its batteries off the coast of North
Carolina. The U-85 was the first U-boat sunk in American waters.
The Roper would have been the most celebrated destroyer in the U.S.
Navy had it not been for the captain's next order. In Time Will
Tell, Ann Davis reveals the truth about the burial of twenty-nine
German sailor's in Hampton, Virginia's National Cemetery. Why were
they buried at night though with "military honors?"
