    Yes I had forgotten that part of the book HOH and you just jogged my memory of it truly was a tragedy up there with the other one in WWII the "Wilhelm Gustloff" torpedoed by a Russianicon sub with a total loss of life from figures researched by Heinz Schön make the total loss in the sinking to be 9,343 total, including about 5,000 children the most loss of life in the sinking of a single ship ever. That book is called the "Cruelest Night" it is a pretty harrowing read as well
