He was the WWI captain who was so chivalrous they called him the 'Sea Devil!' 🚢🇩🇪 Felix von
Luckner was a German nobleman who captained the SMS Seeadler—a disguised sailing freighter—during
the First World War. For 22 months, he sailed the seas, evading the entire
Allied navy! He captured and sank 14 enemy merchant ships, but here’s the mind-blower:
he did it without killing a single person! He would capture the ships,
take the crews aboard, treat them like guests, and then set them free.
The British navy considered him an honorable foe, and his incredible escape,
capture, and escape again from New Zealand became the stuff of legend.
