Imperior Rex. I actually got kicked out of history class back in 1968 for my position. It was a long story, but the only teacher I had trouble with in high school was this history teacher. After a heated argument in the asst principles office, they moved me to advanced history class, and I pulled an A+ on the report that the teacher gave me an E on. The advanced history teacher was named Mr Walker. After I graduated from school, him and I had lunch together about once a month for years, and yes, discussed history, usually around WW2.

So this is not a new idea. According to reports, when the hood blew up, the bismark had no shells in the air. The prince did. A high trajectory 8" shell in an open magazine would be lucky, but not impossible. The hood lacked any real armor, that is why she was called a battle cruiser. They hope to find the hood and look at what happened, but they have had no luck so far.

That is a fair question. We had "E"s instead of "F". I never did understand the "F" think. After a "D", there is an "E". My school never used "F"s

Here all this time, I thought "F" stood for the fact that the liberal bias schools did not know the alphabet enough to know that "E" comes after "D".

So what is the significant of A B C D? D stand fro dumb? C for crummy? B for better? and we all know what "A" stand for he he he.

Do why jump a letter and give some meaning to letter when the rest of them have no meaning. I grew up in Michigan. There was no "F" in the grading scale, because none of the other letters meant anything and E was chronologically the next letter.

You often wonder how many things come into being. This is one of them.

I have not followed any of this in years. Were they able to determine what happened to her? They should be able to understand what should happen between a high trajectory 8" shell and a flatter trajectory 16" shell. However, depends on the wreck's condition, lay factor and other factors.

Sorry, thats just not true with an open magazine when you are loading shells. And the hood just did not have that much protection. The battle cruisers have always taken a beating. They are just a cheap imitation of the battleship IE their losses at jutland.

By the way, nice research, I have read it before. This does NOT eliminate the prince from being the killer. And with this data, many military historians and researchers still say the prince could have fired the fatal shot into the 4" magazines. Even a detailed evaluation of the hood may never answer the question with 100% certainty.
