"145 bolts..." typical German engineering...

LOL - I must have overlooked that number in the article. :)

They said the emblem was on the stern; wouldn't you want something like that on the bow ("leading the way for the glorious 3rd Reich (etc.etc.)") rather than on the ass-end of the ship?

I would have thought so too. Reporter says "stem" proofreader corrects to "stern"

But no eagle on bow here

And there does seem to be something on the stern >
