On this day in the year 1887, Fredrick Fleet was born in Liverpool, England. Fleet was a lookout on the Titanic and was on duty when she struck an iceberg and sank approximately two and one half hours later. Unfortunately, Fredrick Fleet would be among the Titanic survivors who would eventually end their own lives. He committed suicide in 1965 after the death of his wife a couple of weeks earlier. He's buried in Hollybrook Cemetery, located in Southampton.
