    He was relieved of his command and put in charge of a small naval flotilla in the Marianas. He shot himself on Saipan just before the American invasion on July 1, 1944.

    Thx Framert.

    What was the name of the English captain who smashed major parts of the German fleet landing at Narvik with 5 destroyers, but lost his life in the battle?
