The Arctic 75 years ago today: Removing the German Surface Threat (25 Jun 1944) https://buff.ly/2Fx0tVZ By mid 1943 the Allies were successfully defeating the German U-boats in the Atlantic, leaving the Norwegian-based battleships Tirpitz and Scharnhorst as the main threat to the Arctic convoys. The British found Tirpitz in port and eventually destroyed her after seven waves of attacks over more than a year. Meanwhile Scharnhorst was sunk at North Cape while attempting to intercept Convoy JW 55B. The Arctic Convoy route had been secured. #arctic #history #welovehistory #map #1940s #20thcentury #modernhistory #1944 #battleoftheatlantic #nazigermany #uboats #june #june25 #norway #ussr #royalnavy #worldwarii #worldwar2 #ww2 #wwii #secondworldwar #maps #todayinhistory #historytoday #historyteacher #historybuff #historygeek #historynerd #worldhistory #cartography (at Narvik) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzH4p5BAYKr/?igshid=1ubc8yujum1k3

Klaus: “I’ve come to apologize. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe you shouldn’t have made a statement.”

Joachim: “I felt better once I admitted it. That I’m not a hero. If the submarine had been sunk, no one would have known, right? No one would have known whose fault it was. If the submarine had gone down, I’d have died a hero.”

One of my favourite scenes in the series - Weissgerber facing imminent death after Klaus reports him. Klaus apologizing for his actions. Weissgerber respectful of Klaus’ actions and requesting his attendance at the firing squad.
