Lusitania

The Lusitania

In may of 1915, the RMS Lusitania sailed into warring waters. After being hit by a torpedo, the Lusitania sank in 18 minutes taking down 1200 souls with her. A torpedo from a german U-boat made impact with the Lusitania in its hull, and the impact made all the people aware of the terrible position of the ship. Then the Lusitania began to fail, and also explosions were presented. T

he ship was seriously damaged. The boat crew planned a way to evacuate the boat and also to solve the problem in the boat and also they sent the SOS signal for help, but because of the huge impact of the torpedo the water got really quickly inside to the boat, so the captain ordered to quickly evacuate the boat in the lifeboats. The electricity was totally off and the screams were presented in every single part of the boat. 

  

The crew shouted "Women and Children first!" so they can go first in evacuating the boat. The lifeboats were going away and some people who fell down to the sea were swimming for surviving

After 18 minutes of terror, the Lusitania finally sunk, taking lots of lives with her.
