GRAF SPEE
GRAF SPEE
a deadly warning

13th December 2009 is as far as I can make out the 70th anniversary of the start of the Second World War South Atlantic Naval Action which came to be known as the Battle of the River Plate.

This photo taken on board GRAF SPEE shows the dire warning to merchant ships encountered.

I don't think there were any casualties from the merchant ships sunk by her as their crews were taken off and brought on board GRAF SPEE.
