    2. I need help with these Webb's. The new submarine USS H-1 (SS-28) was attached to the 2nd Torpedo Flotilla, Pacific Fleet, and operated along the West Coast out of the submarine base at San Pedro, CA. On various exercises and patrols she traveled the coast from Los Angeles to lower British Columbia, often in company with USS H-2 (SS-29) and sometimes USS H-3 (SS-30). Sailing from San Pedro on 17 October 1917, she reached New London 22 days later via Acapulco, Balboa, Key West, Charleston and Philadelphia. For the remainder of WWI, she was based there and patrolled Long Island Sound, frequently with officer students from the submarine school on board. H-1 and H-2 sailed for San Pedro on 6 January 1920, transiting the Panama Canal 20 February via Norfolk, Key West and Havana. On 12 March 1920, as H-1 made her way up the coast, the submarine suffered an onboard fire and was intentionally grounded off Santa Margarita Island, California. Four men, (M.S. Delarmarine, SN / H.M. Gillef, MM1 / Joseph Kaufman, SN / James R. Webb, LCDR (Commanding officer), were killed as they tried to reach shore. USS VESTAL, a repair ship, pulled H-1 off the rocks in the morning of 24 March, only to have her sink 45 minutes later in some 50 feet of water. Salvage was abandoned. Her name was struck from the Navy List 12 April 1920, and her hulk was sold for salvage scrap on 1 June of that year. Never salvaged her hulk was rediscovered in 1992. Here is where LCDR James R. Webb was buried, and other Webb's buried in the same cemetery.
