During Desert Storm, while docked in UAE, the Navy told us (US container ship) to prepare to go through a possible mine field.
It was my job to use an emergency created software to calculate our stability and survivability should we hit a mine. My calculations showed the ship would not sink (we were a very large ship) but the bow would be blown off.
The ship was one of those container ships where the bridge and all living quarters were on the bow.

So you put the ship in reverse and went in stern first?
