Lusitania 92 Years Later

Today, May 7, 2007, is the 92nd anniversary of the sinking of the Lusitania. Torpedoed without warning by a German submarine, the Lusitania sank in eighteen minutes, taking 1200 people with her. 10 percent of those were Americans. This is what made Americans start thinking about entering WWI. They did in the summer of 1917.
