The torpedoing of the Admiral M-G-M Picture
Scheer was one of the bravest ex-
lots of the war. The Nazi pocket battleship was covered by a screen of destroyers and was travelling at high speed when she was sighted by Spearfish,
The Scheer was hit by two tor- pedoes. The Spearfish was im- mediately attacked by depth charges. During this attack the crew, led by Lleut. Cmdr. Forbes, organised 4 sweepstake on the time of each ex- plosion. Lieut. Cmdr. Forbes calmly ticked each explosion off on a sheet as they occurred.
