The reason this tragedy is not as recognized as the titanic, is because the Titanic was the center of attention that year, nothing was really going on and the boom, the worlds biggest ship sinks. This ship sank during ww2, where way more things happened, with some of the most recognizable battles in history such as dday and the battle for Stalingrad happening.

If you combined the casualties of the SS Sultana, SS Atlantic, SS Arctic, RMS Titanic, RMS Empress of Ireland, RMS Lusitania, HMHS Britannic, and the Halifax Explosion (deadliest explosion before the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima), it would be equal to the Wilhelm Gustloff. Eric Braeden (You may remember him as his portrayal of John Jacob Astor IV from the 1997 movie "Titanic" and on "The Young and the Restless"), was a survivor on board this ship.

judging by your username Im also going to assume you either dont know or deny that the soviet submarine commander marinesko knew full well that the ships he was sinking both that night and the days following were chock full of civilians and posed no danger to the submarine. They were sunk out of a perceived need for revenge. It should also be noted that marinesko was demoted to lieutenant and dishonourably discharged from the military and was a heavy drinker. Not the most savvy of characters I would say. Between the Gustloff and the Steuben he killed something around 14,000 people. Most of which were civilians trying to flee the equal brutality of the red army.

@@martinnebola9586 The terms of the sinking is barbaric for a few reasons. The Soviet Naval forces knew it was transporting civilians yet the S-13 commander still authorised the firing of torpedos upon the MV Wilhelm Gustloff, despite the fact intelligence stated it had multiple civilians on board. There’s also the fact that the number of civilians compared to military presence. Civilians on board outnumbered armed Wehrmacht troops and Kriegsmarine sailors 10-1. There was 4 Kriegsmarine captains on board, a couple hundred Kriegsmarine sailors, and mainly injured and exhausted Wehrmacht troops. There were many more civilians on board compared to these military “targets.” Yet the ship was still fired upon. I draw strong parallels to the sinking of the Britannic by a German U-boat in 1916. It was very clearly a transport ship that bared the marking of the British Red Cross, carrying injured, exhausted British soldiers. A crew of Royal Navy sailors, a bridge command crew and multiple nurses and doctors. Yet it was still torpedoed and sank (as we believe of course as there are conspiracy theories but I’m not going to delve into them.)

For anyone saying that this was forgot and that this should have gotten more attention than the Titanic or Lusitania are disconnected from reality. It’s been theorized that Nazi Germany was trying to keep this disaster on the down low because they didn’t want it to affect morale so that is a possible and most likely reason this wasn’t really discussed about. Plus this tragedy was done during the most major war in history, people die, it’s just a sad part of life. Also the sinking of this ship didn’t cause a neutral nation to war (simplifying history of sake of writing) nor did it cause a huge investigation with multiple huge name families on board that caused change in regulations.

Also, it had a convoy of two military boats and two fighter planes. The sinking was horrible and unjust for the people on board, especially the civilians. But it wasn't a unreasonable brutality. The Germans were under the legitimate assumption, that the Armenia was carrying combatants and armaments. The WG was sunken out of spite and hate.

The steamer was sunk by two flights of Yu-87 Shtuk aircraft, the pilots saw the ship jam-packed with children, women and the wounded, but on purpose over and over again they made combat approaches to it, dropping bombs and shooting from cannons. so Gsutav is just part of the punishment that befell the Nazis.

MV Wilhelm Gustloff was a German military transport ship which was sunk on 30 January 1945 by Soviet submarine S-13. 9,400 people died, making it the largest loss of life in a single ship sinking in history. Originally constructed as a cruise ship for the Nazi Strength Through Joy (Kraft durch Freude) organization in 1937, Wilhelm Gustloff had been requisitioned by the Kriegsmarine (German navy) in 1939. She served as a hospital ship in 1939 and 1940. She was then assigned as a floating barracks for naval personnel in Gotenhafen before being fitted with anti-aircraft guns and put into service to transport evacuees in 1945.

There's a reason why no other disaster at sea has held the allure and had the lasting impact as the Titanic. Titanic had 3 components to it's story which no other ship has had. It was a famous ship. It took a long time to sink. And it had a great loss of life. No other ship has had this combination. The Empress of Ireland was famous & had a large loss of life, but it sank quickly which left little to no time for dramatic stories of love, heroism, & cowardice to play out. The same goes for the Lusitania. The Britannic was famous and took a decent while. But her loss of life was very low. Same goes for the Andrea Doria. The Morro Castle took a while and had a large loss of life (for the ship). But she wasn't really a famous ship. The Wilhelm Gustloff had a large loss of life, but wasn't really that famous of a ship and again, sank quickly. It's sad and unfortunate that none of these other disasters are as well known. But it's not purely by coincidence that the Titanic stands out in peoples' minds.

Top reasons for revenge: 1. The sinking of the ship HMHS Brittanic In 1943 the Germans decided to make a film about the famous shipwreck of the Titanic, but much different from the others. In the film, Great Britain is accused of sinking the ship on purpose, wanting to kill all the people on board (or the richest), but the Germans are the ones who save them from death, which is not true at all. The ship used because the model is a ship SS Cap Ancora (sunk by another Soviet submarine) with up to 4000 dead (with very few SS men or women and over 3500 concentration camp prisoners. ) Brittanic was a hospital ship (hospital ships are completely forbidden to or sunk) crossed the Aegean Sea and was hit by a German mine and over 30 people died (what's even sadder is that it was Titanic's bigger sister ship). So the Germans were already guilty since the First World War, because hospital ships were not allowed to be sunk. And what is even worse is that she was not the only one, (another example) in 1941 the Hospital Ship Armenia of the Soviet Union was sunk in the Black Sea by Hanwel aircraft from Germany with only 8 survivors and up to 8000 dead. 2. Auschwitz concentration camp In 1939 Hitler decides to occupy Poland where he builds the Auschwitz concentration camp where until the end of the Second World War (just three days before the sinking of the ship Wilhelm Gustloff, the Soviets will liberate this camp) they will kill over 1.6-6 million Jews at Auschwitz alone (and at. many others such as Dauchan) and thousands of other nations or peoples such as Roma, Poles, Serbs, Russians (generally people of slave origin), people with mental and psychological problems, Catholic monks and nuns, Jehovah's Witnesses, and children were gassed instantly (many from my homeland Romania). I did not write this to say that the Germans deserved it, the more than 5000 children one hundred percent did not. I just want to say why Wilheam Gustloff (it is not a war crime) having SS men, auxiliary women, guns, submarines etc. which clearly does not make it a hospital ship, nor was it painted (this excuse does not apply to the Lusitania either, a passenger ship sunk by a German submarine with over 1190 lives lost, as it had ammunition and armament on board)

Когда другие становятся нацистами и обвиняют других в том, что они нацисты, это величайшая милость, которую можно оказать нацистам.

@@ottosaxo, "Ланкастрия', "Вирония", "Атения", "Иосиф Сталин", "Армения" и прочие пассажирские пароходы, потопленные немцами - немцы безнаказанно топили гражданские суда, наплевав на конвенции и красный крест. Месть была, как со стороны союзников, так со стороны советов. Правда про "Вильгельм Густлофф" не говорят одно: судно имело культовый статус в Нац. Германии; эвакуация была из одного из самых главных центров подготовки моряков и курсантов военного флота, эвакуировалась городская администрация и пр. структуры, + солдаты, эвакуировавшиеся из котла. Т. о. это было судно, а корабль, а то есть законная цель.
