Summary:THE SELF-INFLICTED 1919 DESTRUCTION OF THE INTERNED GERMAN FLEET AT SCAPA FLOW, ORKNEY, STANDS AS THE GREATEST SINGLE DAY'S LOSS OF SHIPPING EVER RECRODED. SOME OF THE SHIPS ARE STILL DOWN THERE WHILE OTHERS MAY WELL BE ON THE MOON. BASED ON THE EYE-WITNESS ACCOUNTS OF SURVIVING GERMAN SAILORS AND LOCAL ORKNEY PEOPLE, AND INCLUDING SOME REMARKABLE INTERVIEWS AND ARCHIVE FOOTAGE FROM BOTH SIDES, "SCAPA FLOW 1919" CAREFULLY AND VIVIDLY CHARTS THE EVENTS OF A STILL CONTROVERSIAL ACTION.
