  1. HMS Rodney carried 2 x 24.5 inch torpedo tubes, and fired torpedoes at Bismarck at the end of the action, claiming one hit.

  2. For Pedestal, she carried 16 Sea Hurricanes, plus 4 reserves. 16 were lost, but 4, from 801 Squadron, were in the air at the time and were diverted to one of the other carriers.

  3.  @donnacorrell3527  Might I suggest that the M3 being referred to here is actually the medium tank, known to the 'supercilious British' as the Grant or Lee, not the M3 light tank, which was indeed known at the Stuart?
