I have always been fascinated with the chase of the Bismark. Your website is very enlightening. In 2000 I had trouble finding the book " The Discovery Of The Bismark." by Robert Ballard and one of my fellow web surfers on your site gave me some good direction and I found the book. Thank you and my fellow surfer!

Bismarck was indeed the pride of the German Navy of the Second World War. Even its name commanded an aura of awe and respect. Thank you very much for all the information your website has provided.

Anglo-German Alliances failed ; which is why Germany and Britain went to war against eachother! This is best illustrated by the Naval Conflict between the Bismark and British Warships!

Es un gran aporte a la historia y a la investigacion el que me han hecho dar con esta pagina, soy diseñador y siempre me ha gustado la historia y ha sido una maqueta del Bismarck lo que me ha traido hasta esta magnifica y justa pagina web, que la lucha y la muerte no pasen en vano y esta sea una huella que quede para la posteridad, es muy importante guardar esta memoria para las generaciones venideras...

Gracias a esta página he podido ver el mas bello acorazado del mundo mas en profundidad. Aquí, desde España, un recuerdo a las víctimas del Bismarck, del Hood y de los restantes marinos muertos en combate. Spanish people never forget Bismarck´s and Hood´s crew. And excuse me, my english is not very good.

Herr Ludwig, Radio on Bismarck not really important. Bismarck had if I count correctly three radars. That is important. What was radar range, what was radar angle error, etc. Had Kriegsmarine or was it WilhemMarine had radars during battle of Jutland? My guess is yes. Germans had the technology since 1905 or there about. How else would german battle ships sink and cut in half british ships in the middle of the night? In the morning the whole british fleet run away, so they were afraid of german new weapons. Bismarck sunk Hood with the first salvo in bloody snow storm at a distance of 20 km. Even today with al the radars they have it would be a mastershtik of gunsmanship.

Bonjour Jim, sent e-mail but address did not work. So now via this way. You certainly remember the canadian who had a diary of a radio man on B. My offer to translate without answer. Do you have his address in the forum computer ? Or do you have another way to contact him ? Important since there is not much known about radio on board. Thanks, erik

Have just watched a 2 hour documentary from The History Channel about Bismarck. What a ship she must have been...just so sad that Hood and Bismarck both had to be sunk because of war. My feelings go out to the families of both ships' crews

Despite being ex Royal Navy (1978-1984)i would consider it to be a great honour to have served on such a great ship. God bless all souls lost regardless of flag

G'day fellow Bismarckians! I'd like to recommend the game "Call of Duty" a WW2 role playing game. One of the missions is to damage the "Tirpitz". I know its reprehensible, but what the mission allows you is a 3-D virtual tour of the entire Battleship from bow to stern and from the depths of the ship to almost uppermost level of the armoured conning tower. You really do get a sense of scale when you creep past "Bruno and Dora" Hope you guys get a chance to play the game and enjoy the tour I know I did!

www.kbismarck.com/photos.html spicture number 38 shows Bismarck in the vicinity of Bergen. The cone formed mountain in the background is "Lyderhorn". I would have like to have seen a picture 38a, the photo from above taken by RAF on the same day. It shows Bismarck at the same location from above.

Are you sure the radio messages are genuine? From radio messages on your web site one clearly concludes that british fired and sunk Prince of Wales not Bismark. Visibility only 1 mile, Prince of Wales with no bridge and no radio, Bismarck long gone, only Prince of Wales could have been sunk that day by english fleet.

Hello.This day i bought a plastic kit of the Bismarck. I was really looking for something else, but when i saw the oh so impressive boxart and read the name, i rememberd seeing James Cameron`s documenary on Discovery Channel a few months ago. And since the price on the kit was right.. :) As a modeller who builds cars to 95%, i didn`t know much about " the real thing", so i Googled on "Bismarck" and guess what site popped up first on the list? Yes, this one! i drooled over the Models section, and it have given me inspiration to build it. I`ve already glued the hull together, and now i will come back to this site now and then for reference. Very informative site, i might add! The modelkit? Oh, a Revell 1/570 scale.

Excellent site - a tribute to a well designed ship and to the brave men who fought in her. Spoilt only by the guest book with messages from people who ought to visit a holocaust museum, and to realise that Bismark's purpose was to perpetuate this horrror. No ship, however well designed, however graceful in looks, can possibly make up for that. A superb ship that needed to be sunk for the good of mankind.

Hi, Just found this after doing a google search on Ernst Lindemann, who happened to be my Grandfather's older brother. I grew up knowing this story, and our family had personal pictures of Ernst, and super 8 video as well. He was well liked, and despite his stern appearance in his photo, quite affable by all counts..

My uncle was a leading torpedoman on Dorsetshire when Bismarck sank. He was involved directly in the rescue operation and was given a german Navy knife by one of the survivors he helped pull aboard. The knife apears to be inscribed with the name Peter Muller whose rank was descibed in the survivors list as Obermachinenmast. The list also suggests Peter Muller may still be alive. My uncle is also still alive but in poor health and in residential care. Is there anybody out there who may know how I might contact the Muller family and perhaps reintroduce the two veterans if it is not already too late?

Dear Rico, A very intereting and smoothly running Forum. Good work. I am dutchman, worked in the radar business and was sent to France in 1960 to work in a NATO program. I came to your Forum because as the historian of the REF (the official Radio Amateur Association in France) I was requested in 1998 to examine a strange VHF receiver nobody had ever heard of and used by the German Navy during WW2. I am finishing my article about this receiver which proved to be a radar warning receiver. I am therefore interested in the affaire of Luetjens long signal which connects to the story I am trying to put on paper. I read your request for translators and could maybe help you when this article about the Metox story has come to an end. Good luck.

I have been interested in the Bismark since grade school. I have visited your site a number of times recently as I am building the 1/350 Tamiya model (again). My modeling skills have improved and your site has been an exceptional source of information to produce a more accurate finished model.
