"Fratricide In The Fog Of War" Eighty Years Ago Today - The night of Saturday the 13th into Sunday the 14th, approximately 400 miles soutth of Cape Palmas, Liberia, Africa: The 21,500 ton "SS Empress Of Canada" is running south. A beautiful pre-war ocean liner, she's been pressed into service as a troop ship. Her primary route for the last three years has been hauling Australian and New Zealand ("ANZAC") Soldiers across the Indian Ocean, around Cape Horn, and allllll the way up the west coast of Africa to the combat zone in Europe and the Mediterranean. On the return voyage, available space is used efficiently. Specifically, there are 1,800 souls on board her. She's carrying refugees from Poland and Greece, along with a large number of Italian prisoners. If you're already thinking this can't be good, and something is about to go wrong, you're correct. Out of nowhere comes a torpedo spread, not from a German U-Boat, but the "Leonardo da Vinci," a Marconi-Class submarine of the Regia Marina, the Fascist Italian Navy. The hits are fatal... Empress Of Canada goes to the bottom in shark infested waters. The sinking and the sharks take their toll, but incredibly, for all those onboard, casualties are "relatively" light under the circumstances - only 392 dead. Sadly, in this act of fratricide, 149 of those are some of the Italian POWs. Just another day... 🇺🇲🇺🇲 ** Please Like & Follow "Sandy Hook History" on Facebook & Instagram for more amazing maritime and military histories of the Garden State and New York Harbor as well as a review of the 80th Anniversary of the Battle Of The Atlantic and World War 2** 🇺🇲🇺🇲 Photos: 1,nineteenkeys.blogspot.com; 2, sharkattackfile.net #visitmonmouth #newjerseybuzz #thejournalnj #locallivingnj #journeythroughjersey #centraljerseyexists #discovernj #yesnj #newjerseyhistory #newjerseyforyou #sandyhookbeach #sandyhooknj #sandyhookhistory #forthancockhistory #forthancock #battleoftheatlantic #empressofcanada #oceanliner #canadianpacificsteamships #canadianpacific #leonardodavinci #marconiclass #regiamarina #fascistitaly #fratricide #troopship #torpedoattack #sharkattack #lifeboat #lifeboats (at Fort Hancock, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpy37-Rtnar/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ho trovato questa che non è male, s'intravede la cabina coi suoi strumenti e la divisa del pilota non è niente male. #storie #storieefoto #regiamarina #regiaaeronautica #aeronautica #airforce #italia #anr #saiman #asso #history #ww2 #worldwar #worldwar2 #warthunder #fligh #flightsimulator #acrobatics #tourism #ace #204r #alfaromeo #fiat #luftwaffe https://www.instagram.com/p/CHK2ubZjbEX/?igshid=rc2202w9ibo4

Carlo Fecia di Cossato: il "Corsaro dell’Atlantico"

Carlo Fecia di Cossato: il “Corsaro dell’Atlantico”

Il 27 agosto ricorre l’anniversario della morte del capitano di fregata Carlo Fecia di Cossato, uno dei migliori comandanti italiani di sommergibili nel corso della seconda guerra mondiale, considerato un asso con le sue 17 vittorie ottenute con il sommergibile oceanico Enrico Tazzoli tra il 15 aprile 1941 ed il 25 dicembre 1942.

Nato a Roma, da una nobile famiglia piemontese di orientamento…

“Southern Waters” For all the carnage in the north, it must be remembered that the Battle of The Atlantic was fought from the Barents Sea above Norway, to the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa up into the indian Ocean… and all points in between. Today’s attack is such an example. Eighty Years Ago, Today – (Thursday) February 18th, 1943, 56 miles northeast of Salvador, Brazil: The Brazilian freighter “SS Brasiloide” (Photo 1)  is outbound from Maceio, heading south. She is sunk by U-518 (Type IXC) with a pair of torpedoes; the latter breaks her in half. Miraculously, all 50 Crewmen escape and survive the sinking. Meanwhile,  in the Mediterranean, a British torpedo bombers find a perfect target 40 miles northeast of Palermo, Sicily. One attack run later, the 5,891 ton Italian transport “SS Col. Di Lana” (Photo 2)  is on her way to the bottom.  (Casualties Unknown) She isn’t Fascist Italy’s only loss today. West of Sicily, a gale breaks out, sinking the diminutive “RD-24” (Sister Ship, Photo 3), a “Regio Dragamine” class minesweeper of the Regia Marina. (Casualties Unknown) Just another day… 🇺🇲🇺🇲 ** Please Like & Follow "Sandy Hook History" on Facebook & Instagram for more amazing maritime and military histories of the Garden State and New York Harbor as well as a review of the 80th Anniversary of the Battle Of The Atlantic and World War 2** 🇺🇲🇺🇲 Photos: 1-3, wrecksite.eu #visitmonmouth #newjerseybuzz #thejournalnj #locallivingnj #journeythroughjersey #centraljerseyexists #discovernj #yesnj #newjerseyhistory #newjerseyforyou #sandyhookbeach #sandyhooknj #sandyhookhistory #forthancockhistory #forthancock #battleoftheatlantic #kriegsmarine #uboats #uboat #torpedoattack #brazilianhistory #braziliancoast #battleofthemediterranean #regiamarina #italiannavy #britishroyalnavy #royalairforce #lostatsea #foundered #torpedobomber (at Fort Hancock, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/Coz6oxcgRxd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
