KMS Tirpitz - The lonely Queen of the North
This is my third attempt to post this video for youtube doesn't like my choice of music. I used originally "The Blue Max" by Jerry Goldsmith but this one was blocked due to copy right terms. Therefore I resorted to "Medal of Honour" by Michael Giacchino. Enjoy.
Tirpitz was the second Bismarck class battleship of the German Kriegsmarine, sister ship of Bismarck, named after Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz. She never fired against an enemy ship but spent most of World War II in various bases in German-occupied Norway, where her mere presence was a threat to the Allies, tying up significant naval forces. Due to her role and bases of operations she was dubbed the "Lonely Queen of the North" ("Den ensomme Nordens Dronning") by the Norwegians. She was the largest battleship ever built in Europe, with dimensions slightly exceeding those of her sister ship. On 12 November 1944 Royal Air Force Avro Lancaster heavy bombers bombed and sank Tirpitz at her moorings.
