Even the largest fires start with a single spark. In today’s episode we are going to look at the tragic, first shot fired in this pivotal battle that would last the entirety of the war. This is the story of the sinking of the S.S. Athenia, a ship doomed by mistakes made on both sides of the conflict that would cost the lives of over 100 people, nearly all of whom were just trying to escape the flames of war.
