Lot Details
Note: •The Rangitane departed Auckland harbour on Sunday, 24 November 1940, she left her wharf in Auckland Harbour at 1:00 PM and anchored offshore near Rangitoto Island overnight in a wartime blackout before setting sail for Britain via the Panama Canal. On 27 November 1940—just days after departing New Zealand waters—she was intercepted and sunk about 300 miles east of New Zealand by German auxiliary cruisers Komet and Orion. Sixteen people died, and survivors were captured.
