Lusitania

Lusitania's time is 2:10 pm. May 7, 1915. Watching Lusitania, Leslie Morton cried, "The torpedo is on the starboard side." The next two explosions. In 18 minutes, a huge liner once sank to the bottom of the Celtic Sea, the biggest liner ever. Of 1,959 passengers, 1,195 people died. German submarine U - 20 Commander Walther Schwieger launched a torpedo at 750 yards away from the ship and later called it the most horrible thing he saw so far. Lusitania entered between Liverpool and New York on September 7, 1907.

Lusitania is owned by Cunard Line and is designed to compete for high profitable transatlantic passenger transport. Construction began in 1904, after completion of the hull and the main superstructure, Lusitania was launched on June 7, 1906. The lining was the world's largest ship the following year, about 787 feet in length. (240 meters) long and a weight of about 31,550 tons; next year its sister ship Molecetia exceeded it. Although it is luxurious, Lusitania has more speed. On 7th September 1907, the ship sailed for the first time and sailed from Liverpool to New York City. The following month, it got a blue rib with the fastest Atlantic ferry nearly an average of 24 knots. Maurletania later claimed two blue ships regularly honorable blue rebound

Lusitania began to sink soon. Captain William Turner of Lusitania ordered the ship to travel to the coast of Ireland, but that was useless. Within a few minutes the captain ordered the abandonment of the ship. Many people feel that it is difficult to get off the boat as the boat tilts sideways and sinks quickly. Within 20 minutes of being hit, Lusitania sunk. Of the 1,959 people on board, 761 were rescued and 1,198 were murdered.

On May 7, 1915, the German submarine U - 20 saw the British luxury luxury luster Lusitania on the Irish coast. As the largest passenger ship in the wartime Atlantic transit route of the time, Lusitania was torpedoed and sunk within 20 minutes after the second bomb. Of over 1,900 people on the board, nearly 1,200 people including 128 Americans died. In the summer of 1914 after the outbreak of the First World War in Europe, British blocked the German harbor. In response, Germany deployed an experimental attack submarine called the U-boat in the Atlantic Ocean. In February 1915, the German government declared the waters surrounding the British Isles as a battle area and warned the U boat to sink a ship entering this area without warning. Germany insists Britain infringed the ocean freedom by blockade and proves that unlimited submarine warfare actions are correct.
