Deaths aboard Leningrad

Despite the count of nearly 1,800 passengers aboard Leningrad that fateful night, only 3 passed during the sinking.

The following people died aboard Leningrad:

• Leningrad's primary radio operator George Luzenge
• Leningrad's junior radio operator Samuel Henderson
• YouTuber and philosopher Kieran Kovalev

That night, the ship's radio operators both died while transmitting distress signals via the Sea Vessle Communication System (SVCS). There were two of such systems, one at the bow and one at the stern. Once the bow was underwater, a survivor reported seeing Luzenge and Henderson on A deck making their way to the stern, likely to continue distress calls. Captain Lance Kirov accounts telling them that their duty was finished around 2:40am. They were never accounted to have been seen again.

Kovalev was reported to have been last seen at 2:21am, in the B deck dining room, just minutes before it began to flood, by a first class passenger named James Carson. Carson accounts that he asked Kovalev, "Are you coming?", to which Kovalev responded nothing, apparently in a state of shock. C deck had been flooded, and via the Murmansk Staircase, the water was entering the dining room. Carson then made his way up the stairwell, and Kovalev was never reported to have been seen again.
