There were no losses of life on the Queen Mary itself, however a collision with one of its escorts during World War II did result in the deaths of many who were aboard the escort. The collision occurred on October 2, 1942 off the coast of Ireland. The escort ship HMS Curacoa and the Queen Mary were both performing evasive maneuvers when the Queen Mary struck the Curacoa midship at 28 knots, slicing her in half. The Curacoa sank almost immediately, resulting in the loss of 239 lives.
