(quoted from post at 10:55:27 04/07/17) That's a rather charitable take on things....
Another way to look at it.... is that the German surface Fleet was no match for Royal Navy. Germany may have had more powerful, technically
superior battle ships, but they were numerically inferior. Britain had more ships plus aircraft carriers that made capital ships very
vulnerable. To put it politely, after the loss of Bismark, the remainder of the surface fleet spent the remainder of the war HIDING in the
Norwegian fjords... under cover of the Luftwaffe, where the Royal Navy dare not go... and out of range of the Royal Air Force. And in spite
of that the Brits still succeeded in sinking the Tirpitz, at anchor... in one of those fjords. Germany paid a heavy price for the Hood.

(quoted from post at 19:40:39 04/07/17) The Sherman was no match for the Panzer. One shot and they're toast. They survived because of manueverability, sheer numbers and most of
all TRUE GRIT FROM THEIR CREWS! When all else fails ingenuity of the fighting man comes out on top. History if full of heros.
