Sea-power strangled Germany and saved the world. Even when the Kaisers legions were riding roughshod over the greater part of Europe its grip was slowly throttling them. Despite the murderous mission of mine and U-boat, it kept the armies of the Allies supplied with men and munitions, and scoured the world for both. When the British Fleet took up its war stations in the summer of 1914 it became the Heart of Things for civilization. It continued to be so when the major portion of the swaggering High Sea Fleet came out to meet Beatty under the white flag in the chilly days of November 1918. It remains so to-day.
The officers and men of the Royal Navy whose march is the Underseas played a perilous and noble part in the Great Conflict. British submarines poked their inquisitive noses into the wet triangle of Heligoland Bight three hours after hostilities were declared  they watched while the Men of Mons crossed the Channel to stay the hand of the invader  they pierced the Dardanelles when mightier units remained impotent  they threaded their way through the icy waters of the Baltic despite the vigilance of a tireless enemy  they fought U-boats, a feat deemed to be impossible  they dodged mines, land batteries, and surface craft, and depleted the High Sea Fleet of many valuable fighting forces. In addition, they had to contend with their own peculiar troublesshoals, collisions, breakdowns, and a hundred and one ills which a landsman never suspects. Some set out on their duties and failed to come back. They lie many fathoms deep. Their commanders have made their last report. Sea-power has its price.
I am under special obligation to several officers of British submarines for assistance willingly rendered, despite the arduous nature of their duties. Their generous enthusiasm exhibits that real love for the Grand Old Service it is an honour and pleasure to serve in, as Admiral Beatty wrote to me the other day.
HAROLD F. B. WHEELER
