The Germans did it to us. We did it to the Japanese.

War is hell.

War is hell.


Indeed.

The MV Wilhelm Gustloff sank on January 30, 1945, in the Baltic Sea after being hit by three torpedoes fired from the Soviet submarine S-13. It was carrying over 10,000 German refugees and military personnel fleeing the Red Army during Operation Hannibal. The tragedy resulted in over 9,000 deaths, marking it as the deadliest maritime disaster in history.
