Boston ship disaster seals waterfront tragedy
Naval officers said there was nothing aboard the vessel undergoing refitting to account for the disaster as smoke and fumes spread rapidly. Captain Thomas Ahroon of Norfolk fled his cabin through a hatchway to escape suffocation while sailors and civilians below decks perished by flame and blast. Some may have drowned when the sprinkler system released water. This marked Boston's worst waterfront disaster and the Navy's deadliest peace time tragedy since the Hobson loss in 1952.
