On a meta-level, this episode drives home just how huge this war is. Imagine being able to survey the whole globe in November 1941 as if it was on Google Earth. You zoom onto the Soviet Union where the Nazi Blitzkrieg is burning through fields and towns, you zoom onto Japanese naval bases where preparations are being made for Pearl Harbor, you zoom onto the tank-filled deserts of North Africa; and then you zoom onto an ocean somewhere and see a lone merchant raider stalking the oceans, hunting its prey. It&#8217;s on a smaller scale but that raider is part of the war just like the drive on Moscow is. All just one big war, across the whole globe.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Screenshot-2021-09-17-at-11-07-45-The-Real-Life-Nazi-Pirates-\u2013-WW2-Special-Quotulatiousness.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Screenshot-2021-09-17-at-11-07-45-The-Real-Life-Nazi-Pirates-\u2013-WW2-Special-Quotulatiousness-480x270.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-68370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Screenshot-2021-09-17-at-11-07-45-The-Real-Life-Nazi-Pirates-\u2013-WW2-Special-Quotulatiousness-480x270.png 480w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Screenshot-2021-09-17-at-11-07-45-The-Real-Life-Nazi-Pirates-\u2013-WW2-Special-Quotulatiousness-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Screenshot-2021-09-17-at-11-07-45-The-Real-Life-Nazi-Pirates-\u2013-WW2-Special-Quotulatiousness-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Screenshot-2021-09-17-at-11-07-45-The-Real-Life-Nazi-Pirates-\u2013-WW2-Special-Quotulatiousness.png 854w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World War Two Published 16 Sep 2021 There is more to war on merchant shipping than U-Boats and the Battle of the Atlantic.
