lusitania
The Lusitania was a cruise ship full of Americans that was accidentally sunk by the Germans in WW1, and was the main cause of American involvement in WW1. When Germany helped to keep the U.S. out of the war by eventually promising not to sink any more passenger ships, but then Germany violated that by sinking unarmed French passenger ship Sussex. Then again Germany declared and promised not to sink unarmed ships, the promise was called Sussex Pledge.
A Slip of the Lip - Can Sink a Ship - was created in 1943.
ships do not sink because gravity pushes it up
I have never heard of one that did. Most just flew straight into the ship to kill all hands and sink the ship. There were Germans who did fly into allies bases and surrender.
Scuttle
To purposely sink a ship is to 'scuttle' the ship.

The (British) Lusitania had been known to transport troops, arms and ammunitions on behalf of Britain on earlier crossings. The Germans therefore considered it an auxiliary war ship of the British and before it sailed, had warned Americans that the ship might be treated as an enemy warship. Those 128 Americans nevertheless took the risk, because the Lusitania was one of the fastest ships around and normally could outrun a German torpedo.
No. An iceberg sank the Titanic. The Germans sank the Lusitania.
the future tense would still be sink: that ship will sink the present tense could be one of the two: sink: sink that ship! sinking: it is sinking and finally the past would be sank: i saw the ship, it sank not two days ago. hope it helps!!
The ship unequivocally sinks.
The prow; the front of the ship.
To show dignity. They don't have to sink with their ship, but it shows integrity and pride. The captain is in charge of sailing the ship and keeping everybody on it safe.
