Jerry, you certainly didn't mean to call the mighty battleship Bismarck a submarine, did you? I'm quite sure the Bismarck was not a sub - at least, not until after the battle.
I guess it must have been quite an accomplishment to sink the ship. The battle lasted three or four days. When the ship finally sank, all but 110 of her 2,300 crew members sank with her. Sometimes, we forget that the people on the other side in a war are people, too. Two thousand families must have grieved for years after that battle.
