Thanks to the team at HMS Caroline in Belfast, who had us onboard to film for the day. Big shout out to Kerry, who guest starred as our German 2nd. In his words, it was "Great crack", which is funny because we dont remember there being any crack, but then... that's class A drugs for you!

Surviving 3 Fritz-X anti ship missiles and being the first to provide fire support on d day to the point it needed barrel replacement after firing so much at germans GRANTED it may or may not have had a history of ramming things... friendly ships.... cruise liner...mines....a rock..

During the actual hunt for the Bismarck a squadron of Swordfish torpedo bombers did mistake a British cruiser as the Bismarck.

[@Irish381]

@@waltersnowdon1243 oh, really? Towards the end of the battle of The Atlantic, liberty ships were being used as decoys to lure U Boats into attacking them. The convoy would have a destroyer sub hunter embedded into the convoy. This along with the use of liberty ships carrying hedge hog mine launderers. Helped to assist in sinking enemy submarines. My memory is a bit hazy, but I read the western Union telegram that reported my great grandfather was killed in action along with two other merchant marines. From an explosion aboard ship. His name and the other two names are on a brass plate at the Rochester War Memorial. As well as on the D.C. Washington Atlantic War Memorial. You Don’t Have to Be Marion R.
