[edit] The Officer who Sank the Bismarck

I really don't agree with this line at all: "He was made famous as the British Naval Officer who Sank the Bismarck", and I don't think the quoted source or any other I've seen supports it. Kennedy was a junior officer on one of the ships active in that engagement, but I've never seen anywhere where he's credited specifically for having been particularly responsible for the Bismarck's sinking. What he is noted for, as the article says, is for having written a successful book about the subject. We can't even say that his book was the source for the film Sink the Bismarck!, as that was C. S. Forester. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 16:45, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Campaigning

Is the fact that Charles Kennedy is a Roman Catholic relevant? If so, can we be told why, otherwise I'd suggest remove it.
