The event brought together several living survivors, including Eva Hart, Louise Pope, Michel Marcel Navratil, and Beatrice Sandstrom, who enthralled those in attendance with their vivid first-person accounts of the night the "Titanic" foundered in the north Atlantic Ocean. Walter Lord, author of his seminal "Titanic" work, "A Night to Remember", was another featured guest. The Society also works to preserve the history of other ocean liners, especially the "Titanic" 's sister ship, the White Star Line's HMHS "Brittanic", which sank after hitting an enemy mine in World War I, and the Cunard ship

"Mary Rose", which had been ahead of the convoy, and only realised that the convoy was under attack when her crew heard gunfire, was also quickly sunk, as were nine of the merchant vessels. Neither destroyer managed to make a radio report of the attack, and the two German cruisers escaped unscathed. Forty-six of "Strongbow"s crew were killed in the attack. HMS Strongbow (1916) HMS "Strongbow" was an M-class destroyer built for the British Royal Navy during the First World War. The ship was launched in September 1916 and entered service in November that year. "Stongbow"
