What happened during the sinking of the lusitania?
The Lusitania was torpedoed on May 7th 1915, by the German U-Boat U-20. What is not as widely known is that Germany had given many public warnings, even going so far as to publish those warnings in American Newspapers for some time prior to the sinking of the Lusitania, that any vessel found entering their controlled waters would be subject to immediate attack. Despite this the Lusitania was sent out to be destroyed to sway public opinion about entering the war. It was found that the Lusitania was carrying munitions and so was supporting their enemy and a military target. BUT, later, a German U-boat sunk an Italian liner without warning, killing 272 people, including 27 Americans, which turned US public opinion against Germany. And in a third attack, Germans sunk the American liner Housatonic. So while people still argue that the Lusitania was carrying about 173 tons of war munitions for Britain, Germany had no excuse for sinking other ships. The Lusitania argument is largely viewed as merely an excuse only found in the aftermath of Lusitania's loss.

What did the titanic and lusitania have in common?
No, they are completely different boats that met almost the same fate. The Titanic sank when she hit an iceberg in 1912. Ooops, yes the Titanic hit the iceberg, but the Lusitania was sunk by a German U boat (There is a theory the British did it & blamed the Germans) and some US passengers died. This was in May, 1915. It is cited as one of the reasons the US entered into WW1. Sorry, my fault!!!!

What are the names of ships sunk by German U-boats off the coast of Argentina during World War 2?
I don't think any German U boats went that far south. I am sorry but my question was about "prior to our entry into WWI." I believe that the "Fanney B. Prescott" was sunk between New York and England.
