Ship Docks in the Sand Kean Wong: All the way over in Latvia, cruise ship the Mona Lisa has hit some trouble. The ships mostly German passengers were evacuated as the ship ran onto a sandbank. Heres the full story. From the air the Mona Lisa looks perfectly normal. But beneath the waterline this cruise ship is stuck fast. It hit a sandbank, running aground with nearly a thousand passengers and crew onboard 18 kilometres, or 11 miles, off the coast of Latvia. As passengers photographed the holiday adventure they'd become a part of, rescue crews were lowered onto the Mona Lisa's decks, and reported no injuries. After an attempt to refloat it failed, Latvian authorities began evacuating the mostly German passengers to ships nearby. The 40-year-old vessel, which is registered in the Bahamas, had been cruising from Poland to the Latvian capital Riga. Once evacuated its passengers will be transported to Latvia, where their dream holiday will have to continue on dry land. Tags: ntd ntdtv news Latvia cruise ship Mona Lisa sandbank sand |

The USS Lafayette/SS Normandie Fire 1942 From the historic "Stillman Fires" film collection: The SS Normandie was once the pride of the French Merchant Marine and was the largest, most luxurious oceanliner afloat when she came into service in 1935. In September, 1939 the war in Europe had just begun and Nazi-German troops were invading France swiftly. The Normandie was safely in the neutral waters of New York Harbor when war broke out. The US Government allowed the ship to remain in the harbor... a refugee which most certainly would have been immediately used for Nazi naval military purposes if she were to return. Shortly after war was declared between Germany and the US on December 11th, 1941 the US War Department and US Navy seized the french liner at her berth and immediately began to convert her from passenger liner to high-capacity troop transport. She was renamed USS Lafayette and painted battleship grey with camoflage shadowing. Threats of Nazi sabotage loomed across the eastern seaboard, but work continued with vigilance. However on the afternoon of February 9th, 1942 those rumored threats seemed to have possibly become true when a mysterious fire broke out aboard the Normandie/Lafayette. The fire spread quickly through the upper decks, forcing shipyard workers to evacuate the ship. New York city fireboats pumped thousands of gallons of water from the Hudson River into the ship to help battle the blaze, but the extreme weight of the trapped water within her decks caused her to list dangerously to port. By that evening, the monsterous ship laid on her side, resting on the riverbed completely capsized. She remained for several years in this condition while naval workers slowly cut away her superstructure and pumped out water from her hull to slowly right her. By the time she was refloated, the war in Europe was drawing to a close and the ship was no longer needed for war duty. The Navy kept her as surplus until 1947 when she was finally sold for scrap. Although Nazi sabotage was immediately named as the probable blame, the investigation redirected the blame to a combination of careless workers with an acetyline torch, flamable materials stored in poor locations adjacent to the worker's location, poor or non-functioning fire-fighting protection such as waterpumps, fire sprinklers or alarms. It is rumored that the fire may have been intentionally set by the Mafia. "Lucky" Luciano's mob had control of New York's docks and labor unions. The destruction of the Normandie forced the government to realize how vulnerable the docks were to possible Nazi sabotage and led the US Navy and the FBI to negotiate a deal with Luciano (while he was in Prison) for his mob to manage security of the docks until the end of the war. In exchange, Luciano and other leaders were given the opportunity to live a free life outside the US in Cuba, South America or even back in free Italy where many American Mafia leaders swept into towns and cities to establish local governments. This agreement led to the Italian-American Mafia networks to grow internationally and become more powerful and more bloody than ever before during the 1960's and 1970's.

Pearl Harbor In memory of a navy base that was attaked by the Japs in Sunday, December 7, 1941 The attack on Pearl Harbor (or Hawaii Operation, as it was called by the Imperial General Headquarters)[6] was a surprise attack against the United States' naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii by the Japanese navy, on the morning of Sunday, December 7, 1941, resulting in the United States becoming involved in World War II. It was intended as a preventive action to remove the U.S. Pacific Fleet as a factor in the war Japan was about to wage against Britain, the Netherlands, and the United States. Two aerial attack waves, totaling 353[7] aircraft, launched from six Japanese aircraft carriers. The attack wrecked two U.S. Navy battleships, one minelayer, and two destroyers beyond repair, and destroyed 188 aircraft; personnel losses were 2,388 killed and 1,178 wounded. Damaged warships included three cruisers, a destroyer, and six battleships (one deliberately grounded, later refloated and repaired; two sunk at their berths, later raised, repaired, and eventually restored to Fleet service). Vital fuel storage, shipyard, maintenance, and headquarters facilities were not hit. Japanese losses were minimal, at 29 aircraft and five midget submarines, with 65 servicemen killed or wounded. The aim of the strike was to protect Imperial Japan's advance into Malaya and the Dutch East Indies — for their natural resources such as oil and rubber — by neutralizing the U.S. Pacific Fleet. Both the U.S. and Japan had long-standing contingency plans for war in the Pacific, continuously updated as tension between the two countries steadily increased during the 1930s. Japan's expansion into Manchuria and French Indochina were greeted with steadily increasing levels of embargoes and sanctions by the United States and others. In 1940, under the authority granted in the Export Control Act, the U.S. halted shipments of airplanes, parts, machine tools, and aviation gasoline, which Japan saw as an unfriendly act.[8] The U.S. did not stop oil exports to Japan at that time, in part because it was understood in Washington cutting them off would be an extreme step, given Japanese dependence on them,[9][10] likely to be taken as a provocation by Japan. In the summer of 1941, after Japanese expansion into French Indochina on the fall of the Vichy regime in France, the U.S. ceased oil exports to Japan, in part because of new American restrictions on domestic oil consumption.[11] President Franklin D. Roosevelt had earlier moved the Pacific Fleet to Hawaii and ordered a buildup in the Philippines, hoping to deter Japanese aggression in the Far East. The Japanese high command was certain an attack on the United Kingdom's colonies would bring the U.S. into the war,[12] so a preventive strike appeared to be the only way[12] Japan could avoid U.S. interference in the Pacific.[13] While the attack accomplished its intended objective, it was completely unnecessary. Unbeknownst to Isoroku Yamamoto, who conceived the original plan, the U.S. Navy had decided as far back as 1935 to abandon 'charging' across the Pacific towards the Philippines at the outset of war (in keeping with the evolution of War Plan Orange).[12] They instead adopted "Plan Dog" in 1940, which emphasized keeping the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) out of the eastern Pacific and away from the shipping lanes to Australia, while the U.S. concentrated on defeating Nazi Germany.[14] The attack was an important engagement of World War II. Unintentionally occurring before a formal declaration of war (which had been scheduled to be delivered prior to the attack beginning),[15] it pushed U.S. public opinion from isolationism to the acceptance war was unavoidable; the lack of warning led Roosevelt to call it "a date which will live in infamy."

Lake Peigneur Disaster At that time, Diamond Crystal Salt Company operated the Jefferson Island salt mine under the lake, while a Texaco oil rig was drilling down from the surface of the lake searching for petroleum. Due to a miscalculation, the 14-inch drill bit entered the mine, starting a remarkable chain of events which at the time turned an almost 10 foot deep freshwater lake into a salt water lake with a deep hole. It is difficult to determine exactly what occurred, as all of the evidence was destroyed or washed away in the ensuing maelstrom. The now generally accepted explanation is that a miscalculation by Texaco regarding their location resulted in the drill puncturing the roof of the third level of the mine. This created an opening in the bottom of the lake, similar to removing the drain plug from a bathtub. The lake then drained into the hole, expanding the size of that hole as the soil and salt were washed into the mine by the rushing water, filling the enormous caverns left by the removal of salt over the years. The resultant whirlpool sucked in the drilling platform, eleven barges, many trees and 65 acres of the surrounding terrain. Mr. Viator, a local fisherman, was able to drive his small boat to the shore and tie it up to a tree, and get out, to later watch it and the tree get sucked down.[4] So much water drained into those caverns that the flow of the Delcambre Canal that usually empties the lake into Vermilion Bay was reversed, making the canal a temporary inlet. This backflow created, for a few days, the tallest waterfall ever in the state of Louisiana, at 164 feet (50 m), as the lake refilled with salt water from the Delcambre Canal and Vermilion Bay. The water downflowing into the mine caverns displaced air which erupted as compressed air and then later as 400 foot geysers up through the mineshafts.[4] Remarkably, there were no injuries and no human lives lost in this dramatic event. All 55 employees in the mine at the time of the accident were able to escape thanks to well-planned and rehearsed evacuation drills, or through heroic efforts by co-workers. The staff of the drilling rig fled the platform before it was sucked down into the new depths of the lake. Three dogs were reported killed, however. Days after the disaster, once the water pressure equalized, nine of the eleven sunken barges popped out of the whirlpool and refloated on the lake's surface.
