I kept a couple of them around for gunfire support in the Narvik raid and to give American heavy gun cruisers (the Des Moines class) some peers to face off against. To help the Sverdlovs a little bit I gave them laser guided 152mm rounds adapted from army Krasnopol 152mm rounds.

I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...
