After being missing for more than a century, a bell from the only US destroyer sunk in WWI is recovered by British divers

The missing Destroyer was the USS Jacob Jones DD 61, sank in 1917 off the coast of Great Britain's Southeastern tip. The ship had been carrying a troops and supply convoy into France and had been sailing by itself to conduct gunnery training. That's when it was struck by a wayward torpedo from a German sub, flooded the ship in minutes. The crew discovered itself afloat with only three lifeboats as the ship plummeted into the icy Atlantic. Officers then set sail for England, returning the next day to those who were left stranded. Only 46 percent of the seven officers and 103 men survived. The ship was discovered 60 miles southwest of Scilly's Isles of Scilly in 2022, and has been missing for more than a century. A search for its bell commenced, but it wasn't easy at a depth of 115 meters. This week, the hunt came to an end, as shown by a wreath and the US flag at the dive site.

The USS Jacob Jones, an American Navy destroyer lost to the world in 1917, has been a British diver's explorer who has been searching for the USS Jacob Jones, an American Navy destroyer lost for the first time since it sank in 1917. They discovered the vessel 40 miles off the coast of Scilly in the Celtic Sea. The impressive vessel was the first American destroyer to be sunk by enemy fire. A German submarine sank it off the Isles of Scilly in 1917. On December 6, 1917, 66 men came to a tragic end. Dominic Robinson, one of the expedition's divers, stressed the importance of the expedition mainly because of its historical significance. 'This is such an exciting find - Jacob Jones was the first ship of its kind to be lost to enemy action,' Dominic, 52.
