She was a steel colossus. The world’s biggest, fastest and most robust battleship.

After its first engagement, in which the HMS Hill, the pride of the British Home Fleet, was sunk, Churchill issued the famous order “Sink the Bismarck!;” spurring the British’s navy’s hell-bent pursuit and eventual sinking of the greatest German warship ever built. |
