Thread: Target the Tirpitz

    Default Target the Tirpitz

    I was clearing out some old stuff yesterday and came across this image of the Tirpitz.

    I thought it may be useful to those that own a Lanc or two who want to toss a few Tallboys into a fjord - they may be able to make it into a target card.
    Sub the funnel as the red dot !

    A perfect photo for a target card, truly.

    I have a great book on all the missions against the Tirpitz and was thinking about making a campaign of it. This photo will make a great target card.

    Patrick Bishop's "Target Tirpitz"?
    The same one shelved here waiting to be read.

    I can't confirm the book title until next weekend when I'll be back where my library is. I've seen two books on the RAF's operations to sink the Tirpitz but can't remember which one I have!

    Ok, I can confirm this is the book I have. I have read parts of it, very interesting. On the short list to read the whole book.

    I have a book by Patrick Bishop entitled The Hunt for Hitler's Warship. Is it the same book? It was very good.
    So how many books are in your personal library?
