Wouldn't the sailors have a grave elsewhere? I don't think place of death (or last known location since many would abandon ship prior to death) qualifies as a grave.
The first thought that came to my mind was that the scavengers are cleaning up a small part of the pollution in the oceans.
- Inconel 10y agoI'm certainly no expert on maritime disasters but I would think that if a ship goes down, particularly as a result of war, there may be significant numbers of the crew trapped inside. As to cleaning up the oceans, I'd love it if someone could do some back of the napkin type calculations on how much pollution is caused by these sunken warships as opposed to commercial shipping or industrial runoff. I would assume this is negligible in the grand scheme of things.
- Eridrus 10y agoYeah, but people notice when you steal a commercial shipping vessel, I think they even call you a pirate or something, and may even shoot you!
