    1. SHIPS LOST AT SEA WEBSITE
    2. Good morning Shipsters, A fellow transcriber has asked me if I have ever come across a website that listed ship sinkings of any type? The following in her words -- One time, she was surfing somewhere, and came across such a website where ships that were lost at sea were listed in sort of a 'Excel' pattern...that it listed ship name, type of ship; when it was lost, how it was lost, how many lives lost, how many survivors. This list included any and all ships lost during the WW2 in both Pacific and Atlantic. There were a lot of Japanese ships as well as ours listed by being sunk by planes, etc. But, there were a lot of German ships as well. It also listed ships like the Titanic, Normandie, Bismarck, Andrea Doria/Stockholm disaster, etc. It was a very, very interesting read......since that sort of thing interested her!! It would say if the ship had been torpedoed; kamikaze or bombed, etc. There was a tremendous loss of life on the seas during the WW2; even some ships that were taking prisoners from the South Sea Islands to Japan and sunk by our own planes. If anyone on this list happens to know what the web site is that she is referring to, please let me know.
