I always thought Officer Wilde deserves credit, in regards that it may have been him that allowed more men to survive.
When the ship was listing to port, he ordered people to go to starbord, thus putting more men on that side for Murdoch to put in the boats after the women and children (the men seemed out of luck if they were on Lightoller's side). |
