Today in history you probably haven’t heard of…
The Wilhelm Gustolff was a ship trying to evacuate Germans ahead of the Russian advance in 1945. By some estimates she was carrying about 10,600 people, military and civilian, with somewhere around half of them children.
She was sunk by a German submarine with a loss of life just of over 9,400.
For comparison, the loss of life on the Titanic was about 1,500.
It remains to this day the single largest loss of life in any shipwreck.
