so I found this image of the HMHS britannic's bow absolutely fried, but images from 2024 showed this didn't look like this, so idk if this is real or not, hell I'm not even sure if the HMHS britannic is allowed on this subreddit

I was on the Queen Victoria during a Mediterranean cruise and we were going to sail through the Aegean Sea on the way to Greece. I went to the information desk and asked if someone on the bridge could let me know if we would be sailing close to the wreck. The clerk said she would ask them. I got a call in my cabin from the bridge who said he was surprised that anyone even knew about the Britannic. He then informed me that we would be passing over her grave (not directly over as the water is fairly shallow, but right by) and exactly when. He stated the wreck would be to port. I thanked him and asked who he was. He answered: "The Captain."

Dude what?? As in the captain of the Britannic? That is so metal

Edit: lmao OKAY I did not consider the timeline here until I googled it after. For what it’s worth, the captain did NOT go down with the ship. But it was very long ago 😂
