On this day (November 12th) in 1916, Titanic's sister ship Britannic, left the UK for her sixth and last voyage.
She was sailing to Mudros to pick up the sick and wounded as she was working as a World War One hospital ship. Tom |

Hi,
She was a World War One hospital ship, that was steaming to Mudros on the Greek island of Lemnos to pick up the sick and wounded and take them home to Britain. Tom |

Hi, Bladefire,
Thank you, If you send me a PM with the link I'll have a look at your site for you. Hi, ella m bullock, Yes thats right, Olympic served her country as a troop transport. Most historians think Britannic was either sank by a Mine or torpedo. There is more evidence though that she hit a mine (I'll post more about that on the 21st). Divers that have gone into Britannic's cargo holds have found no weapons (but we can't say for 100% that she was not carrying weapons). Tom |
