About the Bismarck:
The German battleship Bismarck is one of the most famous warships of the Second
World War. Named after the 19th century German chancellor Otto von Bismarck,
Bismarck's fame came from the Battle of the Denmark Strait in which the flagship
and pride of the British Royal Navy, the battlecruiser HMS Hood, was sunk in
May 1941, from Churchill's subsequent order to "Sink the Bismarck",
and from the relentless pursuit by the Royal Navy which ended with her loss
only three days later.
