As mentioned earlier, my main aim in making the special feature on the Gustloff was to ensure more people would be made aware of this terrible tragedy and I am happy to report that the aim has been achieved. To date, over 65,000 people have visted the Gustloff site and, on November 15th, 1999, the History Channel aired a World Premiere of a documentary covering that very subject. I was honoured to have been asked by the Executive Producer to participate in the making of this documentary, which I did by contributing data for his research. My thanks go to all those who have helped me amass the vast amount of data which has made this feature possible and especially my friend, Mr Klas Horndahl. Check out the preamble to the S-13 story here.
