A sad and heroic tale!😮😢💯👍❤🙏!

I,just remembered that back in the late 1970's, after when the Edmund Fitzgerald sank on November 10,1975. A, Singer named Gordon Lightfoot has written a Song 🎵 Titled,THE WRECK OF THE EDMUND FITZGERALD. Just, recently Gordon Lightfoot has passed away. Gordon Lightfoot has lived in Toronto, Ontario. 9:08

In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed In the maritime sailors' cathedral The church bell chimed 'til it rang twenty-nine times For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee Superior, they said, never gives up her dead When the gales of November come early

TFS! Another interesting lesson!!!

Back in 1975,and I was 18 years old and I graduated from high school. I moved out of my parents house and went on my own. I got a full time job at the Eastland Mall in Harper Woods. And, when November 10,1975, and I remember when the Edmund Fitzgerald sank. When, the Arthur M.Anderson was following the Edmund Fitzgerald and she was the last Freighter to have contact with the Edmund Fitzgerald. Whenever, the Arthur M.Anderson should retire and the Arthur M.Anderson should be a,Museum. The Arthur M.Anderson is a Floating Museum. 7:15

Thank you for posting 👍👍

I had no idea the bow looked just like Titanic.

Great video. Correction from 1:13 into video: McSoreley was not on the maiden voyage. He was not the first Captain of the ship. In fact, he did not assume command of her until 1972. He and Armogast did both go down with the ship.

Thanks for sharing that info!

It was big news when it happened. I remember it clearly

Never really knew about the SS Edmund Fitzgerald or how it sank. When Gordon Lightfoot sang this haunting song about it's tragic end. Thank you for your insight into what happened.

Loved the song sung by the late Gordon Lightfoot about the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald.

I’m confused as to why you did this video in February rather than in November to let folks know the anniversary of the date is coming up, or help people relate to this more as the weather in November will be like what these sailors and the families left behind experienced. If you’re in Detroit, you can hear the church bells ring for each life lost.
