Nice idea

That's it!!

And this

*Stroke*

*Stroke*

Will it even work?

What... That's going to be difficult

This happened two days before the Bismarck was sunk

If I recall correctly, the Battleship King George the Fifth has two smoke stacks!!

Bu-... But how?

If we put our minds to it, we can build anything.

Hm, you know, to make it look more real we need to get some smoke out of it

Been at it since noon.

It'd be bad news if they managed to find us...

My fuel...

Did I manage to chase off those English bastards?

Bismarck sunk the Royal Navy's Hood and heavily damaged Prince of Wales, but took heavy damage in return while being pursued by the Royal Navy.

Although it might be a silly scheme, it was better than doing nothing, so the crew started constructing a fake smoke stack using canvas and sheet metal!!

The "smoke stack" was painted with gray paint, but because of a lack of experience, it took until sunset. Nevertheless the task was completed!!

This order, made in jest, boosted morale

The finished smokestack was laid on the deck, ready to be installed when the order was given, but it seems that in the end the smokestack was not actually used.
