Admiral Günther Lütjens

Johann Günther Lütjens was a German admiral whose military service spanned more than thirty years and two world wars. Lütjens is best known for his actions during World War II and his command of the battleship Bismarck during her foray into the Atlantic Ocean in 1941.

In the 1960 film, Sink the Bismarck!, Lütjens (played by Karel Štěpánek) is portrayed as a stereotypical Nazi, committed to Nazism and crazed in his undaunted belief that the Bismarck is unsinkable. In reality, Lütjens did not agree with Nazi policies; along with two other navy commanders, he had publicly protested against the brutality of anti-Semitic crimes during Kristallnacht. He was one of the few officers who refused to give the Nazi salute when Hitler visited Bismarck before its first and final mission, deliberately using instead the traditional naval salute. He was pessimistic of the chances of success of Bismarck's mission and realized that it would be a daunting task.

Admiral William (Bull) Halsey Jr.

William Frederick Halsey Jr. or Bull Halsey was a fleet admiral in the United States Navy during World War II.

Halsey was made commander of the South Pacific Area, and led the Allied forces over the course of the Battle for Guadalcanal (1942–1943) and the fighting up the Solomon chain (1942–1945). In 1943 he was made commander of the Third Fleet, the post he held through the rest of the war. He took part in the Battle of Leyte Gulf, the largest naval battle of the Second World War and, by some criteria, the largest naval battle in history. He was promoted to fleet admiral in December 1945 and retired from active service in March 1947.

Comrade

Admiral Richard Rachel Levine is the most courageous of them all. With admirals like him it uh um her? out public health fleet will rule the waves. It also appears that our spent nuclear fuel is in capable and well manicured hands. And such a stylish dresser too.

My God this administration is a friggin clown show. We don't need circuses anymore because the Democrat Party is a freak show. This kind of sick and bizarre stuff is what's important to these people. We need a return to sanity and soon.
