Terukuni Maru, - the crew, all safe, being bough ashore on one of the tenders.
Terukuni Maru was a Japanese ocean liner owned by Nippon Yusen Kaisha (NYK). The ship was launched in 1929 by Mitsubishi Shipbuilding & Engineering Co. at Nagasaki, on the southern island of Kyūshū, Japan, entering service in 1930. She sank off the English coast in 1939 after striking a mine. Her sinking has been described as Japans only World War II casualty outside East Asia before the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbour. The 27 passengers and 178 crew were all saved.
