RE: The sinking of the SMS Szent István 1918.

in #history7 years ago

Great story, I read somewhere that the liutenant in command of the italian boat was punished for something, cant remember, and was demoted to the torpedo boat. I think after this he redeemed himself :)

Sort:  

His name was Luigi Rizzo his nickname was The Sinker and few months before sinking the Szent Istvan he sunk the SMS Wien in Triest. He was charged with sabotage in WWII by the fascists.

I mixed up wars then. Really enjoyed reading this
