two torpedoes at her. The first struck Pasley on her starboard
quarter, but too acutely to detonate; the second passed astern.
On seeing the submarine's wash, Pasley's officer of the watch,
Midshipman Frank Wallis, RNR, turned the boat hard to starboard
and rammed G9 just aft of amidships all but cutting her in two,
and she sank less than one minute later with the loss of all
but one of her crew, Stoker William Drake.
