My Great Aunt was a nurse working on this ship when Britanic sank. She always maintained two things, (1) whatever it was that holed the ship was so slight it hardly caused the ship to shudder and the noise so slight it was difficult to hear and (2) the dressing down the nursing staff had received the previous day for closing portholes. They had been instructed to open all portholes, windows and watertight doors to "air" the ship in preparation for taking on wounded. This was against wartime regulations. Apparently, the Chief Medical Officer (I can't remember his official title) was a firm believer and stickler for the benefits of Fresh Air in the treatment of wounds. My great-aunt survived and lived to be 99 and 10 months. She always maintained that had the portholes and watertight doors been shut the captain would have been able to beach the ship and she could have been saved and repaired but its continued forward motion with the portholes open let in so much water that it was inevitable she was lost. My grandfather, an experienced officer on the battleship HMS Thunderer an Orion Class mark 6 Super Dreadnought of the same period also thought the same and that the speedy enquiry sought only to cover this up to protect both the Navy and the government. I am nearly 80 and I still have postcards from my great-aunt to her parents in London following the sinking.

Yeah, that checks out. The "CMO" would have been the "Surgeon", who was a warrant officer with a terrible, non-descriptive title, and reported directly to the Captain of the ship (as opposed to "Captain" as the rank--this distinction will make sense just six words into the next sentence). In Britannic, the Surgeon was Captain John Cropper of the Royal Army Medical Corps, who died with the ship, which may be why they covered it up. By the way, Navy Captain = rank 6. Army Captain = rank 3. Yeah, it's confusing, but the military will never let "making sense" get in the way of tradition. Also, a warrant officer is an officer that is chosen because of specific non-military skills, usually professional practitioners, so they may feel bound by the ethics of their profession rather than by military rules. They are above all enlisted men, but below all comissioned officers, regardless of rank. BUT they have some leeway in how they deal with the things directly under their purview, and may have argued that because the ship's captain didn't know about the (now debunked) medical use of fresh air, then his order may not have taken it into account. If he did, though, then it absolutely is against the rules to disobey a direct order.

Thank you all SO much for featuring Britannic! She may be the somewhat forgotten sister of the Olympic Class liners, but she will never be forgotten by me and many others. Ship number 433 was the peak of the Olympic Class and she was the absolute pinnacle of maritime engineering after learning the lessons from Olympic and Titanic. She was as perfectly built and arranged as any large ocean liner could be in her day. I would've loved to have seen Britannic become a true staple of maritime history and be preserved as Queen Mary has. The third and final ship of the Olympic Class, easily surpassing the Cunard trio (although Aquitania was bigger and closely as luxurious), Lusitania (sunk on May 7th, 1915 by U-20 captained by Walther Schweiger during WWI), and the ever-beautiful Mauretania. Like Mike has always told us, the Olympic Class liners were built to be the absolute last word in luxury. When Titanic was lost, the industrious town of Belfast was absolutely devastated in so many ways. Thomas Andrews was an Orangeman, (kind of like we have the Eagles Clubs and Croatian Clubs of today), and he was well-known in Belfast and especially within Harland and Wolff. After Lord Pirrie's exit from the yard due to his support of England having their rule over Ireland (as well as his brother-in-law Alexander Carlisle, the Chief Designer quitting), it was expected that Thomas Andrews would take over the shipyard for his uncle, Lord William Pirrie. Titanic (along with every ship built) had what was known as the "Guarantee Group" that included the top workers from the shipyard to shake the ship down during it's maiden voyage to make sure that the ship was in top shape, with any issues being reported back to the shipyard to be incorporated into the newest vessels. Mike is a great maritime historian, and while I am 40 years old, and have been researching Titanic and maritime history in general for the last 34 years of my life, he continues to teach me of even the most mundane details of the great liners. I genuinely appreciate his teachings. Thank you again Mike!

I checked with my father and he confirmed they were panelling removed from Brittanic during her conversion to hospital ship. I told one of the Directors of the company and it took several lorries to take away the wooden sections. There was so much panelling it had been spread all over Belfast, and in some cases, H&W didn't know where half of it went.

I've always felt that ships, more than any other means of transport, seem to have their own character and personality. When we tell their stories, fictional or true, it becomes easy to root for the ship as if it were a person. I remember learning about Britannic early in my teen years and becoming obsessed with her. Of the three Olympic class ships she became my favourite, and I think the reason lies in the tragedy of her story. This video really captured that in such a way that it reminded me of those early teen years reading about this doomed ship, and I want to applaud how well you manage to convey that character and personality, turning the ship herself into the main character of her story.

Somethings to mention are that there was a shift change going on when Britannic struck the mine in which all of the watertight doors were opened to allow the firemen easy access to one compartment. Although these were to be opened for a short period of time, as fate would happen they struck the mine at the worst possible moment. Onboard the lifeboat Violet Jessop was on were two other Titanic survivors, Arthur Priest and Archie Jewel, both survived. The last people to leave the Britannic were actually the engineers who just made it to the Second class quarters on B and C decks when the water reached the first funnel.

Just as with Titanic, the sinking of the Britannic was one of those occasions when everything went wrong: recalled to service when she was supposed to be free, her portholes undermining her safety features, her captain making a TERRIBLE mistake in keeping her engines going, and then her communications compromised during the sinking. Any one of these things going differently could have ameliorated or avoided the tragedy. But while Britannic was, mechanically, the ship that Titanic SHOULD have been, and would have sailed through the iceberg incident without a scratch, these small things would doom her just like her sister. You have to say one thing, though: they sure got everyone off in a hurry! If it weren't for the idiotic mistake of leaving the propellers running, then the successful evaucation would probably be remembered as a triumph, and a massive improvement on Titanic's last hours.

It wasn't an idiotic mistake of leaving the propellers running. Bartlett was trying to beach the ship to save it and save everyone. He did not give any orders to lower the lifeboats. The lifeboats that were pulled into (or almost pulled into, as was the case with the third boat) were launched without his permission by confused and scared officers manning the davits. Bartlett had no idea the boats were launching, since he didn't order them to, otherwise he would have absolutely shut the engines off.

It was not a terrible mistake to keep the engines running. The Captain did NOT order the boats lowered because he would have understood that was too dangerous at that time.

The capatain wasn't at fault here. Information should have been gathered before lowering the boats. Had the boats not been lowered, the ship woukd have been beached and saved. They lost time when the ship was stopped and the engines cut off when he hard about the propeller incident. The ship was so close to land because the water was only 400 feet deep at that point. That's why the ship stood straight up in the air when the bow hit the floor cause the ship was 800 feet long.

I, for one, firmly believe that Britannic’s story deserves more attention then it gets. Spotted by a U-boat a week before her fate but ignored, hitting a mine, people meeting their tragic and gruesome ends due to disobeying orders, sinking over twice as fast as her famous sister the TITANIC, sinking in the Mediterranean’s Aegean Sea rather than any ocean.

Hard to believe that the ship was SO close to being used as she was designed for until more casualties started racking up again. Though, it is sad the ship was lost. But at least she can see daylight. Plus, the biodiversity that call the ship home is what's preserving her. She maybe the lesser known of the Olympic class, but she'll remain with us for a LONG time.

Beautifully done, Mike! I did notice a couple of inaccuracies in this otherwise wonderful documentary. First and foremost is that the story of Ismay and Pirrie dreaming up the Olympic-class ships after dinner at Pirrie's Belgravia home in 1907 is a widely circulated myth. Particulars of the design and construction of the Cunard greyhounds were known by 1907, and the provisions of the 1902 Parliament loan to fund their construction were of public record. Construction of the Arroll Gantry was well underway by 1907, and work on the new Thompson Graving Dock had begun in 1904. Thomas Andrews was actually not the chief designer of the Olympic-class liners. This title falls to Alexander Carlisle, Harland and Wolff's chief naval architect. When Carlisle retired in 1910, Andrews filled his position as head of the design team.

Definitely the best one by far. I didn't even know that the ship had completed a tour prior to this incident before this video. What a shame. Brittannic could have made up for the mistakes that Titanic suffered from. There's no doubt that it could have helped Bruce Ismay to become the president of the company again in the 1930's rather than White Star Line merging with Cunard. It is just that the board saw that he was instrumental with 3 ships and 2 of them sank. Even though the 2 that sank did so under extremely unfortunate circumstances and sheer bad luck. They were actually extremely well built and Brittannic took that further than any other grand ship before her. Just think that she coukd float with 6 flooded compartments, amazing

While Britannic never had the captivating tragedy of Titanic or the long, glorious career of Olympic, it could be argued the Britannic's career is more prestigious and note-worthy than her two sisters, because she spent her entire career as a hospital ship; she existed to save lives. I think Britannic deserves a lot more coverage than she gets, and definitely worthy of the title of "History's Greatest Hospital Ship". When Mike described the blasting of Britannic's whistles it actually conjured a different analogy to what Mike describes (Playing her own funeral song); that the ship was crying out in pain. Obviously the reality is Bartlet was trying to attract attention to the sinking ships location but the incredible presentation standard Mike has always set gave me the very sombre image.
