This really hits close to home. I lost a friend and two acquaintances on the El Faro. I've also had a family member serve on her back in the '90s. And I sailed on the ship that took over her run in the Caribbean. It's amazing how few people have even heard of this event.
There's a book coming out soon that you can pre-order on Amazon all about the disaster.
