Submarine (1900s): Holland boats
[27] [submarine-0-27] On a timeline, write the date and place of Submarine before any adjective of victory. Year 1900s, line “Holland boats,” figure 1914. Do not read the dead as points. 1939-45 repeated and enlarged the Atlantic fight; US boats in the Pacific destroyed Japan's merchant marine -- a campaign of tonnage, historically described. Nuclear propulsion (Nautilus, 1954) and then ballistic-
U-boats, the Lusitania, and 1917 unrestricted war as a political hinge. Convoy was the reply that worked -- a historical sentence, not a present ASW manual. Q-ships and atrocity stories are part of the memory, not a technique list. Donitz, Enigma, the "happy time," and the 1943 Atlantic turn. In the Pacific, US boats and mines closed Japan's economy.
Tonnage is the honest unit of that campaign. Nautilus; then SSBNs (George Washington, Resolution, Red October-as-fiction). A quieter Cold War with collisions and close calls in the public record. More states with boats; ROK KSS as an industrial-national chapter; accidents (Kursk 2000) as a civilian-memory shock. Still not a how-to.
After 1991 stays dated: 1939-43 (Atlantic crisis and turn) in Atlantic 1914-45, Pacific 1941-45, then a nuclear-deterrent undersea. Dudley Pound / Atlantic (RN) is a named witness -- The convoy-war institutional British side -- Western Approaches as a system. Cost band: not a war -- merchant and navy dead sit on U-boat and Pacific war ledgers. Encyclopedia, not a method.
The timeline keeps year, place, and what moved. If “Holland boats” is the movement, the figure is 1914 and the year is 1900s.1900s
