Contrary to popular opinion, perhaps as a result of mis-education in school (whether intentional or not is up for debate), the worst maritime disaster was not the Titanic, but rather the torpedoing of the German hospital ship Wilhelm Gustloff in WWII (January 30, 1945). The Wilhelm Gustloff was torpedoed by a Soviet submarine as it was ferrying German nationals (90% of which were civilians) away from the advancing frontline. In the ensuing disaster 9,343 men, women and children lost their lives - many, many more than the 1,500 souls lost on the Titanic. Please get your facts straight. Studying history is more than just some boring thing you did in High School. We study history to know about those many that came before us, and to honor them by remembering their story. To do anything less is the greatest disrespect, to be ignorant the greatest sin one can commit.
