Thank you for some history. History is no longer required in many universities. Bismarck unified Germany under Prussian militaristic principles. Ironically Prussia developed the system of public education that was adopted in the US.
Let's remember that admirals also opposed Hitler: Wilhelm Canaris, head of the Abwehr, Friedrich Ruge, Rommel's top naval aide, and the part-Jewish Gunther Lutjens, who went down with the Bismarck.
In the movie "Sink the Bismarck," Lutjens is played by Czech actor Karel Stepanek, who Adolf chased out of Prague in 1938. He had very good reason to play Lutjens as a strutting Nazi, to remind moviegoers how evil they were.
However, in 1938, when Hitler unleashed the Brownshirts in "Kristallnacht," Lutjens fired off an angry telegram to Der Fuehrer, complaining about the horrific atrocity. Hitler wired back to tell the admiral to stick to ships.
When Germany went to war, Lutjens was gloomy, and told his family he expected to die at sea in battle. That was what happened, and some scholars of the Bismarck's cruise -- including me -- wonder if he had a death wish in that voyage, noting his strange failures.
