Hospital Ship SS Berlin sank in 1945. She is seen here awaiting to be raised by the Soviet Union. She would later sink again 41 years later in 1986 with a loss of 423 people
The ship was raised and went onto have a successful cruising career. She sank in a collision on August 31, 1986. All of the bulkhead doors and portholes were left open which caused the ship to sink in just 7 minutes. 64 bodies remain in the ship as it was so difficult for divers to retrieve bodies that divers perished on the wreck.
