Hello Fatboy, I dont know where you got that story from mate, bout the Brits sinking Bismark, examination of the wreck apparantly has proven beyond doubt that she was actually scuttled by her crew as was the Graf Spee?
As far leaving sailors in the water mate, thats sea warfare, ships rarely stopped to pick up survivors, often for good reason, torpedo attacks and them being sunk themselves,however lets not forget no survivors were ever picked up by German U Boats after the sinkings of 100s perhaps more than 1000 allied ships in WWII as a matter of course?
Regards Shooter
