Destroying Wilhelm Gustloff was an act of revenge. On 7 November 1941 German bomber Heinkel HE 111 attacked Soviet's hospital ship in Black Sea. That time Red Army was in heavy defense battles. Nazis were advancing on Crimean Peninsula every day. That hospital ship was the last one came out from Crimean Peninsula and it was carrying only wounded soldiers. The ship was marked as non combat ship. It's crime to attack that kind of ships under Geneva Convention. The ship was sunk. Lowest estimate says 5000 were death . Stalin and Central Committee got mad. They ordered submarine captains and navi pilots to attack large hospital ships of Nazis when they see them. Wilhelm Gustloff and Goya were attacked and destroyed by Soviet's submarines.

When the Soviets found that they needed out with the rements of three divisions shot up and a huge number of refugees etc they built certain merchant ships with concrete lining several feet thick or more. As much as these speeryships can hold (Their term) those went first detonating mines all day long making a passage for the 150 or so others to get out behind them.
The Nazis did what they could in such a storm of attack from the air. When the big liner with 5000+ aboard was sunk, Churchhill had the news suppressed and made secret for National Morale Purposes. Among other shipwrecks of that magnitude in war.
As bad as the soviet situation was it was worse on the Murmansk Run with convoys of up to 50 ships carrying enough to fit a army and food to feed it besides and piles of planes and tanks for war. Once the germans with Hipper, Scharonhorst and several other truly dangerous warships caught a convoy with hardly nothing but snow squalls, one WW1 era brit battleship and a couple of corvettes, hardly destroyers escorting same. True wolves among sheep.
However the British were able to keep shooting enough well enough to where the German Admiral Lujtens were discourage because Hitler ordered him not to take on equal battle like say Two British BB's that he thought in his mind were coming between him and that convoy. In reality there was very little in between. Anyway he retreated instead of pushing through to complete the kill of all 50 helpless ships with the blood, treasure and the very best production of months and years of work in our homeland industry. (By women mostly by the way...) this was a total war.
Today they talk about war.
Thats not war we see today. You will know your Nation is at war when you cannot get strawberries at any price anywhere.mhyn Thanks this. -
