You could have encountered the battle early on when the cruisers were still just keeping tabs on the Bismark.
Nope.

21 May, 1941, Bismark is around the area od AD52.

Hood is sunk and Bismark starts towards the open Atlantic.

5 days later a message is sent out requesting all subs in and around BE 53 to assist Bismark.

I was at BE 53 when I found the two Fuji's.

I was wanting to know where the capital ships were.
