was on her fifth patrol of the war near Palau Islands when on 25 March 1944 her crew sighted a Japanese convoy of six ships. After trailing the convoy for several hours, the Tullibee fired two torpedoes at a target and waited for the expected detonations. Unfortunately, one of the torpedoes malfunctioned and made a perfect turn around to hit Tullibee amidships in a violent explosion. Only a single man survived the sinking to be captured by the Japanese and held as a POW until the end of the war.
