Description:The Wilhelm Gustloff holds the infamous record for the worst loss of life in maritime history. When she was sunk on January 30th, 1945, 9,343 men, women, and children slid under the waves of the icy Baltic Sea when the Soviet submarine S-13 fired three torpedoes into her port side sinking her in just over an hour. But what was life like on a passenger liner of the Third Reich?
