A minor correction. Graf Spee was a "Pocket Battleship" and about 1/3 the tonnage of the Bismarck. Ostensibly she carried sixX11" guns in two triple turrets with a top speed of around 25kts. Bismarck was close to 50K tons, 8X15" guns and a speed of 30 kts. smile

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
