John CoffeyNYC_Crew_Desertions_and_Discharges_Sample_Description
John Coffey served as a fireman aboard many transatlantic passenger vessels, including the RMS Olympic, RMS Lusitania, and RMS Muaretania. He gained worldwide notoriety in 1912 as “the luckiest man alive” after deserting from RMS Titanic in her last port of call in Ireland. Had Coffey remained aboard, he most likely would have died when the Titanic struck an iceberg and sank four days later.
