Baby Born In Lifeboat At Sea Amid Atlantic Torpedoing
In Norfolk on April 2 a four day old boy was born in a lifeboat after the ship carrying Susasia Mian consular officer Mrs Desanka Mohorovich and her family was torpedoed in the Atlantic. The mother, supported by a seaman, held the infant aloft as the rescue ship carried them to safety after 40 hours adrift. Sixty boats and twenty two others remained missing, with 30 feared dead from the attack and two surviving crews staying with the vessel to fire at the submarine. The dramatic voyage is framed as a possible epic of the Battle of the Atlantic.
