Battle of the Falkland Islands - Von Spee's Last Stand

Cheers Scoot.

Always thought Von Spee's cruise would have made a good film. On the lines of The Battle of the River Plate film

Agreed.  Although it should be a two parter (diology?) to show both Coronel and the Falklands.

Yup any cinema film would probably deal with Coronel as a forward and then have Von Spee as the "star" much in the same way as Peter Finch was as Langsdorf. A two parter made for t.v. could do the cruise and its finale justice however.

Bloody tragic waste of too many brave men!

But, then, all battles & wars are.

Unfortunately, sometimes, they're necessary.

[NARSES2]

Totally agree Mr Wombat sir
