A very thought provoking sign. "War is not a solution - never" is written on a sign in my neighboring town (German/French border). How true.

Shortly before the end of the war, on May 3, 1945, the British sank the "Cap Arcona" and the "Thielbek" in the Bay of Lübeck. They suspected German troops were on board – a mistake: 7,500 concentration camp prisoners were on board.
