Sailor of the King background

Sailor of the King

Andrew Brown, a Canadian sailor, is taken prisoner on a German raider heavily damaged in battle, and he devises a plan to stall its repairs until a British naval task force can intercept and destroy it.

A German raider sinks the HMS Aylesbury, leaving only two survivors who are rescued by the damaged Essen. As the Germans seek shelter to repair their ship, one of the survivors plots to hinder their efforts and give the Royal Navy a chance to track and destroy the enemy vessel.
