Note	After the outbreak of WWI Walther von Schweiger was promoted to Kapitänleutnant and given command of the U-20. On May 7, 1915, Schwieger was responsible for U-20's torpedoing of the passenger liner RMS Lusitania leading to the deaths of 1,198 people, an event that played a role in the United States' later entry into World War I. He would also torpedo the SS Hesperian on September 4, 1915, and the SS Cymric on May 8, 1916.
