look like a surprise attack,
the aussie return fire but was too late,
what puzzling,not a single aussie in the cruiser live to tell the tale compare to the german ship
-
The cruiser came too close,
the german merchant fired all their concealed weapons.
The aussie ship returned fire but it was too late,
but what is puzzling? no single aussie survivor to tell the tale and a lot of german pow.

@99Bessa It was the largest allied warship to be lost with all hands in ww2,that hasnt happened before or since. Within three months of HMAS Sydney's loss the Royal Australian Navy was almost wiped out by the Imperial Japanese navy.The mystery is how does a veteran cruiser get sunk by a commerce raider so you really dont understand Australian sensitivity do you you Portuguese pole smoker.And thanks for not defending your colonial possessions like Timor .WW2 Portugal goes Neutral. Left it to us.

@ StorytellerMedia
They seem to take the 'baffle them with BS' approach - lots of material and not much inquiry. By the nature of events the main evidences is the accounts from the Germany survivors, especially the Kormoran's Captain. Fair enough, but the unchallenged acceptance of the Captain's evidence I find hard to believe.
The whole crew was well motivated to lie.
And they well probably well prepared and well versed, both before and after the events.
