On November 10th, 1975 the SS Edmund Fitzgerald sank on Lake Superior, taking all 29 crew members with it. At that time, it was the worst shipping disaster on the Great Lakes in 11 years!

Listen to this rare radio chatter between the Arthur M. Anderson, the vessel that joined the Fitzgerald, and the Coast Guard. It was the last time anyone ever heard from the Edmund Fitzgerald. Gives me goose bumps!
