I started this discussion in "life" even the opposite is what really occured.
History has been made in Australia over the past few days.
Two warships, sunk during WW2 off the coast of Perth, have finally been found after 66 years.
The sinking of HMAS Sydney was Australia's greatest war time tragedy.The Sydney sank after a surprise attack by the German raider Kormoran, disguised as a merchant ship.All 645 crew on the Sydney went down with the ship. Most of the German crew on the Kormoran survived.
Mystery as to why this happened so tragicly has endured for 66 years. There have been official enquiries & lots of rumors.
Now, with advanced technology, the wrecks will be examined & answers finally obtained.
Peace at last for the family members of all the victims.

With the technology they have nowadays, I think they will work out the case of this trajegy. The sailors families were always suspicious of how quickly it sank.
