Naval Campaigns Kriegsmarine

In May, 1941 the German Battleship Bismarck sailed into the North Atlantic to challenge the British control of the seas, and threaten her vital convoy routes. That journey would be the stuff of legends, as the Bismarck would blow up the HMS Hood off Iceland, before being run down while making a break for France.

However, that was only a small part of the bitter battles fought between the Kriegsmarine and the Royal Navy during the war.
