There is a little issue with the Viribus Unitis sinking. This is my recall. There could be some imprecisation here and there but still: It was no a torpedo boat. The torpedo boat logged around a manned torpedo. The Manned Torpedo entered the Harbor with two saboteurs, Raffaele Rossetti (the same engineer that developed said manned torpedo) and Raffaele Paolucci, on board during the night. The two places a 200 Kg charge on the ship and were discovred and captured immediately after. This was around 4:40 AM. The sunk the manned torpedo that had another charge on board. This one later sunk a support ship when it exploded at around 6:45 AM. Now this I cant be sure that is true but the story make sense: Once under custody they discovered that the Battleship was no longer austrian as was the entire fleet. Basically the fleet was handed over when they were on their way to target so they had no way to know what was going on. So they warned the Crew of the charges and asked to abbandon ship. They said that the charges were to blow at 6:30. They didnt and the Crew of The Viribus Units resumed its stations. The Charge detonated around 15 minutes later taking the ship down with most of the crew that made it back, including the commander, Janko Vukovich. The two italian raiders managed to survive, probably due to them being better swimmer than most, and were liberated a few days later when the Italian Navy occupied Pola. The Two received a compensation of more than a Milion Lire as the law dictated. Later on they devolved part of the sum to the Family of Captain Vukovich that after the loss was in a precarious economic situation.

Only found the channel in March of 2018, so have been playing catch-up for months. And now I am, on the 8th of November. Sunday's 100th anniversary was a huge motivation. Thank you Great War Team! I may have disagreed with certain things said (and wrote too often in response), but this has been a great educational tool for my kids and "fun" for me. Every week interesting and Indy's insights forced me to think anew. A gift worth even more than I could afford through Patreon.

I discovered this channel in early 2016 and went back and binged all the episodes up to that point to get up to speed. That took about two months to complete. With the end near as Germany stands alone the writing is on the wall. I only hope that the channel will continue through the peace talks and well into the Treaty of Versailles so that we can understand the interwar period better. As George S. Patton said, the politicians always do things half-assed and leave us with another war to fight.
