>1 Urquhart:
Wrecked on a sandbank near Sheerness in Kent during a storm in 1944, the SS Richard Montgomery was a so-called US Liberty ship delivering much-needed ammunition to help in the war effort. But it never got to its destination. And years later it languishes with its deadly cargo of some 14,000 tonnes of high explosive becoming more unstable by the day.Somehow that seems fitting for a ship named for the Revolutionary War general who led the failed 1775 invasion of Canada and got himself killed outside Quebec City. If youre going to send his namesake into British territory, expect misfortune.
