It’s Official - The Search for the Sunken Hospital Ship - Centaur - Will Happen
I thought this was interesting news to those of us who follow WWII news…
The Australian government has committed to donate $4.3 million to locate the sunken World War II hospital ship, the Centaur. Sunken by a Japanese submarine off of the south east coast of Queensland in 1943, the ship had 268 people aboard - all of whom went down with the ship.
This is good news for the families who lost a loved one aboard this ship, as there will finally be some closer and understanding to what has happened. We’ll keep this post updated with news as it comes to us.
