The SS America was built in 1940 and had been used as a passenger ship for several decades. But in 1941, the Navy used the vessel but the crew was unaware that there were two undercover Nazi agents from the Duquesne Spy Ring. Luckily the FBI discovered them along with 31 other spies and convicted them. But in 1994, during its 100-day journey, the ship encountered a storm that left it wrecked and broken in half off the coast of the Canary Islands.
