I simply would not want to be in stormy winter arctic seas under any circumstances.

My father served in the North Atlantic during WWII. He suffered from frostbite secondary to that experience. He never accepted a dime from anyone. We must take care of our veterans and our military.

The Scharnhorst was thought to be a cursed ship, even by the national socialists:

“Gentlemen, the battle against the Scharnhorst has ended in victory for us. I hope that any of you who are ever called upon to lead a ship into action against an opponent many times superior, will command your ship as gallantly as the Scharnhorst was commanded today.”

Admiral Bruce Fraser
