In WWI the terror of German submarines was completely justified. This invisible menace was a constant threat to allied shipping able to strike anywhere day or night. Thus was conceived the grand mine barrage, an outsized idea for a growing problem. The fence in the menace by laying a barrage of anti-submarine mines right across the North Sea, requiring the manufacturing of mines in unprecedented numbers to be laid by ships that didn’t even exist.

Thus was started a massive multi-national operation attempting a task bigger than any nation had ever tried. This narrative is a detailed description of the development of the operation and placing of the mines.
