@Pine, ah, missed that. ;-) @Joe, can we make sure the image and caption are fixed when you share it on Facebook? When I share the page, it shows the graveyard image and includes the first image's caption, neither of which are very engaging. I like the image with the crewman next to the bomb—it's a human face.

Perhaps "Unlike in The Hunt for Red October, this ship was sunk." ?

I kinda like using the hunt for Red October since it reflects the title of the blog post (The hunt for Tirpitz).

OK. Even so, I think the best comparison for the ship is Red October rather than the Hunt for Red October.
Alternative:
"Wikipedia and the hunt for a Nazi battleship"
