Missing Australian submarine found, ending 103-year-old mystery
Dec. 21 (UPI) -- The wreckage of a lost World War I submarine used by British and allied forces has been found by the Australian Royal Navy -- ending a mystery that endured for more than a century.
The vessel carried 35 British, Australian, and New Zealand crew members when it disappeared near the Duke of York islands on Sept. 14, 1914, while on patrol for German warships.
The submarine was led by Lt. Cmdr. Thomas Besant, a 30-year-old British officer. There were no calls of distress or witnesses to the events.

Found near Papua New Guinea and it is from World War I.
