  • 2/ "But all these measures turned out for nothing. The Germans didn't even notice the false convoy.

    Three days later ?? tass?? made an important announcement. In the Barents sea one of our submarines (Attacking from the flank)?? of the German battleship Tirpitz two torpedoes hit and caused the battleship serious damage."

  • 1/ "To deceive the enemy a false convoy was sent to sea. It had to be assembled from ?? forces which had been entrusted with ?? a landing in southern Norway. It was expected that this would spilt the German forces into two, especially since the course of the covering force was chosen to give the Germans the impression that the battleships were covering the diversionary force."

  • great!
