Summary
[edit]DescriptionUS Navy memorial to those who died in 1977 (Port of Barcelona) 02.JPG |
English: US Navy memorial to those who died in 1977 (Port of Barcelona). It commemorates the death of 49 marines who perished in the waters of the harbour there. On the freezing cold night of January 17th, 1977, more than one hundred marines, many of who were worse for drink, clambered aboard a small launch. Some of them may have been brawling. Minutes later, the launch crashed into a Basque merchant ship, the Urlea—probably because of a navigational error on the part of the launch’s skipper—and capsized, throwing the marines overboard. Many died in the cold January waters of shock, hyperthermia or heart attack. Some managed to swim to the shore. A number survived for two hours in the air pocket formed under the boat, until they were rescued by the combined efforts of the Navy and the Barcelona salvage crews. Català: Portal de la Pau. Monument als 49 mariners de la US Navy morts el 17 de gener de 1977 al Port de Barcelona. |
