Great op-ed, Tom. Were there any casualties you're aware of? Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 03:40, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- Our article on the matter says 16 Imperial German Sailors KIA, but that would be directly related. I'm not sure about POW-related casualties (like deaths due to "accidents" or such), nor am I certain how they were killed. Smart money says drowning, but if I had more time on the matter I'd have done a better job of looking into this to see if any were killed buying time for German Navy personnel to evacuate or intentionally killed by Royal Navy personnel in the process of their attempted intervention to prevent the scuttling.

This is an interesting topic and ther article was a great read. I heard about the fate of the German fleet but never really knew the details about it. Thanks for the op-ed. Arthurcurrie (talk) 04:47, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
