    I've been fascinated by this story for most of my life. My Grandfather was Ralph Rogers one of the service men riding that night. He can be seen in one of the photos holding the baby. He survived to tell the story but many didn't. God Bless this families who will never forget. Ironically, I joined the Navy and now am in the U.S. Merchant Marine working as an officer on the Ferries of Puget Sound, WA. It's a story I tell occasionally when we're training. Peace and Prayers, Lorrie

    thank you for posting this. As someone who has been on the modern SS Caribou, i have personally seen the memorial on the ferry. Grew up visiting family in Newfoundland every summer, so well educated on this sad story. Its heartbreaking and for some reason there is so little about it online. So grateful for this. Their story should be told.

    There was a second ferry named Caribou which sailed between Nova Scotia and Newfoundland from 1986-2011

      I traveled on the second Caribou many times. I am from Cape Breton, lived in Newfoundland for a few years. Still astonishes me that there were German UBoats off the coast of Cape Breton.

    Thanks for this. I'm from Port aux Basques and my Uncle (by marriage) was Captain Taveners grandson. There were 21 windows and 54 fatherless children in our small town after that night.

    I had an old friend who was born aboard the Caribou on June 12, 1942. Sadly, he passed away in 2022. I know he would have loved this video. My father was born in Rotterdam just three days before the Caribou was launched.

    You're correct, Jamie!! I never heard of, this ONE either. You present more, assorted ship's documentaries, from ship's I'm unaware of. Thanks👍!!! The U-boat didn't pick up, any survivors, I assume😔??

      No it hasn't actually. The survivor's knew where she went down obviously but there has been no effort made to look for her. We go out each year to the site and throw a reef in the water.
