The deaths of the Sullivan brothers weren't weird, just extremely tragic. During the war, all five of the brothers were assigned to USS Juneau, a light cruiser. In November of 1943, Juneau was sunk by a Japanese submarine with very high loss of life, and all five brothers were killed during the sinking or in the immediately following events. The deaths of basically an entire family (they were survived by their sister) made national headlines. What made the tragedy even worse was that the Sullivan family was not notified by the Navy of the deaths until several months had passed in order to preserve operational security. "Dear sirs, I am writing to you in regards to a rumor going around that my five sons were killed in action in November...I hated to bother you, but it has worried me so that I wanted to know if it was true. Please tell me. It was hard to give all five sons at once to the Navy, but I am proud of my boys that they can serve and help protect their country." -Alleta Sullivan

The violent deaths of the Gracchus brothers changed Roman politics. From that time on people saw violence as a political weapon. They often attacked leaders with whom they disagreed.

The Gracchus brothers were the ones who proposed this type of land reform. Needless to say the proposal was not embraced by the wealthy and actually resulted in the deaths of both brothers.The Gracchus brothers were the ones who proposed this type of land reform.

Gaius Gracchus has one of the more interesting and gruesome deaths in Roman history. He was killed in a riot he started, decapitated, and thrown into the Tiber River.

Problems faced by the Roman people after the death of the Gracchus Brothers is that it showed that the republic was unable to resolve its problems peacefully. Also, during the next 100 years, Rome was plunged into a series of civil wars.
Musical- but could be described as tragic or political due to the deaths of the brothers and the poverty/unemployment
