I'd have to agree there. True, true, it's no Titanic disaster. But indeed thirty people did die, and it was at least in part under Admiralty control. I would imagine that constitutes a war grave in at least partial respect. On top of that, of course, what would be done with her once she was brought up? Look at what happened to the three props brought up from the Lusitania. Two were melted down into golf clubs, the other is in a scrap yard. What would prevent the same fate from befalling Britannic?
