After reading a bit further on the site...It is apparent that the Gustoff was used as a troop carrier at one point as well as a hospital ship and even as a floating barracks for sailors....so it is possible the Soviet skipper did not realize it was full of refugees.....I guess.....the ship did not carry hospital ship markings at the time of her sinking...... War....Is an atrocity....
