There is ample mention in the published literature of the addition of the Atlantic bow to the Bismarck after its launch but I have never seen a drawing of the modification or a photograph of the work in progress during the time the new bow was being applied. Any additional information regarding this very visible feature of the Bismarck would be sincerely appreciated.

Regarding the April 2008 Quiz: you need to add a "None of the Above" button---of the three choices available, none were strategically sound. Bismarck was not a suitable commerce raider, and Norway was of no strategic consequence either to the Germans or the British. Raeder's reasons for ordering the breakout were unsound, but the move itself was the only practical one for the German surface fleet. Adding Tirpitz would have increased the urgency with which the British hunted the squadron, and would certainly have changed Tovey's typically hesitant dispositions. Remember that, but for Lutjens' bungling, Bismrack might well have made Brest, where she was an actual danger to the vital convoys of the South Atlantic---with Bismarck, the German Battle Squadron in Brest was sufficient to force the British into further convoy escort commitments from a dwindling supply of capital ships.

With the phenominal advances in film technology, why hasn't a modern movie been developed about this fantastic ship? Thanks to James Cameron for producing a great documentary in 2002. In light of this, someone should develop a story honoring this ship's legend!

Mi primer conocimiento de este excelente barco fue un reportaje de Selecciones de el Reader Digest alla por finales de la decada de los 70 sobre el libro de Ludovic Kenedy y quede realmente impresionado con la historia y desde esa fecha hasta hoy siento un profundo respeto por ambos contendientes y la mision que les toco cumplir excelente sitio, sigan adelante y ojala se siga aumentando informacion conforme se encuentre de este impresionante acorazado Bismarck

I have just a remark regarding these wonderful ships. According Jane´s Fighting Ships 1943/44 edition, originally there were three ships of this class instead of two. The third could not be completed in time before the end of the World War Second, and she was bombed to sunk while she was alongside wharf for completion in the Shipyard in Hamburg.

Werner Lampmann was one of the crew of the Bismark. He had to be taken off the ship for medical reasons before she made her final voyage. If he didnt't get sick, iI would not be here.

After hundreds of books and articles mystery still haunts Bismarck: was the central fire direction/ control room above the main armor deck? Was it hit in the final battle? How many shells were fired by the Bismarck and why was the Bismarck silenced so quick? Were both rudders damaged by the torpedo? What was the exact painting scheme in the final battle? Why didn't Bismarck hit his adversaries?
Was the armor scheme outdated or just right for its final battle?

My Father told me stories of seeing the HMS Hood In the Grand Harbour Malta and I have always had a great interest in her and The Bismark. This is a great site keep up the good work.

I am the son of an officer on the Dorsetshire who was an eye witness to captain Martin's decision to abandon his convoy and join the attack on Bismarck. He received no order to join, it was his initiative.

Wir kommen von der Schattenseite des Lebens in das helle Licht der Ewigkeit. Wir werden mitten in das Leben hinein geführt. Ohne Weihnachten wäre unser Herz eine finstere Kammer ohne Trost. Jesus kommt in unsere Nacht, damit wir in sein Licht kommen können. So kann aus Zwietracht Frieden werden. Wer sein Herz an Jesus verliert, der hat das Leben gewonnen, er ist heil geworden. Wer zur Krippe geht, kehrt als Beschenkter zurück. Er ist angesteckt, damit der Glaube nicht mehr auf Sparflamme brennt.

A wonderful side. All fallen sailers of Bismarck and Hood should rest in peace, and all who survived are fortunes of war. The fate of those two ships should tell us how awful war is and how cruel mankind can be. I´m interested of Bismarck, because I´m in the filmbusiness (only a little fish, now), but I want to write a screenbook about "Operation Rheinuebung", and it will be more, maybe. Carry on! Brilliant side!

I just just come into possession of many approx 50 photos from ww2. These are RAF operational photos with dates and what not. all aerial. Included in this group of photos are photos of the Prinz Eugen, The Devonshire, Nurnberg etc. all on or around the dates of 26May45. Surely it is the Prinz on its way to dry dock. Anyone interested in these real photos they are still in the original cardboard folder with operational photos written on the front. Most photos are stamped as well. Email if you have any interest or questions.

The Bismarck is my favorite ship of the era, her sister ship runs a close second. A Suppurb design. I play war games, I always play the German side. Far better equipment. I've been tring to find the blueprints of the bismarck, because I want to build a 12ft version of her. Can someone help me get a set.

what an impressive history that even goes as far as the south pacific region history and today so many half-cast Pacific-German's descdendants from the Kaiser during the 1850s reign prior to the British Empire in the Pacific at the same time there is a lot to be said especially in today's world situation where the region remains the South Pacific region remains the world's largest and deepest ocean with the most fish stocks in the world.
