  1. On boarding the Altmark apart from the phrase 'The Navy's here!' it wa sthe last time the Andrew issued Cutlass for boarding. As for the Graff Spee, the Britsh actually came up with the idea of sending Britsh merchant men out of Montividio , as the rules were a combatant unit couldn't leave till a merchant man had 24 hours start. The idea was delay Graff Spee till heavy units of the Andrew arrived.

  3.  @freespeech8030  Don't try saying that in South Wales! The Tonypandy Riots of 1910. My Farther was a child at the time. The family is South Wales miners on both sides. He spat when he heard Churchill's name.
