On November 19, 1941, the cruiser HMAS Sydney (eight 6 inch guns and eight 21 inch torpedo tubes), was commanded by Captain Joseph Burnett, RAN, and approximately 150 miles south-west of Carnarvon, W.A., and steaming on a southerly course to Fremantle, W.A.

About 5.30 p.m (WA time). she sighted a merchant vessel about 12 miles range. As the range closed Sydney tried to ascertain the stranger’s identity. After confused signalling the other ship identified herself as the Dutch ship Straat Malakka. She was actually the disguised German raider Kormoran (six 5.9 inch guns and six 21 inch torpedo tubes).

When the HMAS Sydney ordered her to make her secret call sign, the German Captain, Commander Theodor Detmers, realised he could not bluff his way clear and had no alternative but to fight.

At 6.30 p.m (WA time)., Kormoran unmasked her guns and opened a devastating fire on the Australian cruiser, simultaneously hitting her with a torpedo.

The Sydney was soon ablaze with her forward turrets wrecked. However, her after guns returned a short but effective fire, hitting the Kormoran in the engine room and causing a fire that eventually was to prove fatal to the raider. Down by the bow, she turned as if to ram the German ship or to bring her starboard torpedo tubes to bear. She passed close astern of Kormoran and narrowly missed her with a salvo of torpedoes. All the time she was under fire from the raider’s guns.

She limped off into the evening well ablaze and her glare could be distinguished until 11 p.m (WA time). after which only occasional flickerings could be seen and these had vanished by midnight. Meanwhile, Kormoran’s crew had abandoned ship and the raider blew up at 1.30 a.m (WA time). Seventy-eight of Kormoran’s complement of 393 were lost. The survivors were picked up by other ships or reached the West Australian coast.

None of Sydney’s 645 men survived.

Your absolute level of detail in this post is simply staggering ... perhaps next time you might like to actually say something like the version you are running, the scenario you are running, whether it is a new game or not, what the air group name is that has the problem, whether it is a user modified scenario, you know, some useful information.

Not being hard on you, just trying to condition people into thinking through what they are posting. Your post happened to make it somewhat easy to give a good example. It is always easy to forget that other people can't see your screen and everyone is always in a rush to post something just to get it posted ... those few extra minutes of thinking it through can mean the difference between a fix getting in a patch and a fix not getting in a patch.

I agree, take the left out of it and the BS will follow [;)]

Atleast the "current administration" doesn't close the window shades and pretend nothing is wrong and all is just fine........as did the "Previous Administration."

So...... how is everyone's current game going...........[:D]

Sorry about the reply, lets not make this into a political rant, someone always has to throw in politics where it is not even relevent. Vals wont fly over 6820 feet bug!! should not include comments regarding the current administration because some of us, myself included, like the "Current Administration" but this is not the place to get into those things.[:)]

I concur, with over 80% of the people polled saying they have already decided who they are voting for, right now this is a very strongly debated topic. I'll just leave it that in DC regardless of administration there is a lot of bs office politics.
