A German submarine shells Saint-Kilda

Saint-Kilda is an isolated archipelago where the Royal Navy had just installed the very first radio station. A German submarine arrived there on 15 May 1918 and fired 72 shells at the island to destroy the military equipment. The material damage was significant, but the only living being to succumb was a lamb.
