Atlantic Comrades by Ivan Berryman.


Atlantic Comrades by Ivan Berryman.

The Scharnhorst is pictured in 1939 when she and her sister ship Gneisenau menacingly prowled the North Atlantic. She is shown at dawn as two type VII U-Boats glide towards her for a friendly rendezvous and to take on much needed supplies, as well as a few of the luxuries that the tiny u-boats were simply too small to carry.

Channel Dash - A Whirlwind Encounter by Robin Smith.


Channel Dash - A Whirlwind Encounter by Robin Smith.

February 12th 1942. A Westland Whirlwind rushes an attack on the Scharnhorst as one of 20 Me109s defending the German ships arrives on the scene. Despite opening fire at every opportunity, all four Whirlwinds of No.137 Squadron were lost against the overwhelming opposition of enemy fighters from JG2 and the defensive guns of the ships. Three official claims for Whirlwinds were made by German pilots of JG2 that day - one by Johannes Stolz, another by Willi Reuschling and a third by high-scoring ace Egon Mayer, claiming his 29th victory in a tally that would rise to over 100 before his death in 1944.

Operation Cerberus - The Channel Dash by Philip West.


Operation Cerberus - The Channel Dash by Philip West.

The Channel Dash (officially known as Operation Cerberus) was one of three operations during the Second World War for which the Swordfish was to become the most famous. Heavily outgunned in the Straits of Dover on this day in February 1942 by the German warships Scharnhorst, Gneisenau and Prinz Eugen, with their accompanying flotilla of destroyers and motor torpedo boats, and with top cover provided by deadly fighter aircraft of the Luftwaffe, all six Fleet Air Arm Swordfish were shot down. Only five of the eighteen aircrew survived. Here we see the Swordfish flown by Sub. Lt. Kingsmill and Sub. Lt. Samples with PO Bunce in the rear, fighting for their lives with his machine gun.

Escort to the Scharnhorst by Simon Atack


Escort to the Scharnhorst by Simon Atack

When the German battleships Scharnhorst and Gneisenau entered Brest in March, 1941, between them they had sunk a total of 22 ships during their North Atlantic operations. Laying in port however, they became a target for constant air attack, Scharnhorst being damaged by bombs, and in February 1942 the decision was made to break out with the famous Channel Dash. Scharnhorst led the flotilla in a daring passage through the English Channel, heading for the sanctuary of Wilhelmshaven. They all got through but, striking two mines en-route, it was March 1943 before the Scharnhorst was able to resume battle operations when, under heavy escort, she sailed for Norway.

Death of the Scharnhorst.


Death of the Scharnhorst.

John Winton.

The Scharnhorst was one of the Germans most valuable and successful battle cruisers. From the earliest days of the Second World War she wreaked havoc on Allied convoys and became a symbol of German naval might. But on Christmas Day 1943 this came to an end when the Home Fleet of the Royal Navy was successful in trapping and sinking her in a climactic battle with the big guns of the battleship Duke of York. Drawing on eyewitness accounts from both British and German survivors, this is John Wintons gripping story of how the Scharnhorst was lured out to sea and finally defeated.
