March 28:
Celtic Sea: Georg-Günther von Forstner scores again with U-28, sinking the British passenger/cargo ship SS Falaba, 4,806 tons, bound from Liverpool to several West African ports. He now has 7 ships and 17,503 tons.
Saudi Arabia: Having gathered ninety camels, Hellmuth von Mücke and his men depart Al Lith at 1600 hours. He has purchased a number of straw mats for shade while resting. Most of the camels carry water, with the remainder packing the supplies and machine guns. The men march with loaded rifles due to the number of bandits in the region. Their route is northward, paralleling the coast. They also have an escort of one Turkish officer and seven troops.
