The pursuit of the Bismarck.Bismarck and Ark Royal?Ah, those two do have a little bit of a connection, yes.A connection... you say?Pursuit of the Bismarck....is the deal.That's not really a 'little bit of' a connection, now is it....The hard-to-reply-to self-flagellation came out...From Bismarck's perspective, Ark Royal is a foe that pursued Bismarck with all her strength for the purpose of sinking her by her own hand.as an uncompleted ship, it's something that I can only comprehend, but never truly empathize with, isn't it...She would be harboring complicated emotions over it, wouldn't she?
