A Memorial To The Wilhelm Gustloff:

http://www.feldgrau.com/wilhelmgustloff.html

The "Wilhelm Gustloff" was a refugee ship that was sunk at the end of the Second World War, killing an estimated 6,000 to 8,000 or more people. This is four times as many lives as were lost on the "Titanic", making it the biggest ever shipping disaster in terms of loss of lives. My partner, Inge, was one of only approximately 800 survivors.
