Huh. I'll bet the crew got frustrated as Hell. Nevermind bored to death, that little anchorage somewhere in Norway likely wasn't the liveliest of locales.

"Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

Re: Tirpitz
Is there a good reason why the Germans didn’t just confiscate the northern convoys rather than sink them after their protectors ran away? There seems to be some indication that they were carrying some hot commodities.

Re: Tirpitz
I think the problem there was the fact that the Home Fleet always had a distant escort of heavy units protecting them. Those convoy ships were hardly the fastest ones around and thus you give the Home Fleet ample time to catch up with them.

Re: Tirpitz
About a hundred of them were killed in one of the air raids of the Tirpitz. I'm sure they were 'bored', but I think they're bored in a happy way. I mean, they're not in the trenches somewhereOriginally Posted by Watchman
