OLZS - RMS Lusitania and U-20 - TWoS

RMS Lusitania was an ocean liner that was launched by the Cunard Line in 1906 and held the Blue Riband appellation for the fastest Atlantic crossing in 1908.
It was briefly the world's largest passenger ship until the completion of the Mauretania three months later.
She was sunk on her 202nd trans-Atlantic crossing, on 7 May 1915, by a U-20 11 miles (18 km) off the Old Head of Kinsale, Ireland, killing 1,199 passengers and crew.

SM U-20 was a German Type U-boat built for service in the Imperial German Navy.
She was launched on 18 December 1912, and commissioned on 5 August 1913.
During World War I, she took part in operations around the British Isles.
U-20 became infamous following her sinking of the British ocean liner RMS Lusitania on 7 May 1915, an act that dramatically reshaped the course of World War I.
On 4 November 1916, U-20 grounded on the Danish coast south of Vrist, a little north of Thorsminde after suffering damage to its engines.
