Bacground for name?

[edit]

What is the background for the Polish name? A tribute to Joseph Conrad? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.215.43.102 (talk) 02:27, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ORP Piorun properly translates as "lightning", ORP Błyskawica properly translates in English as "lightning flash", and ORP Grom translates as "thunder bolt". There was a continuing theme with thunder and lightning.ORPBłyskawica (talk) 23:31, 14 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

the ship did not locate the bismarck that was added by someone it was just part of the latter attack from the south long after it was located and followed then relocated by a pby from ireland.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.133.21.41 (talk) 20:04, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Piorun or Plawski?

[edit]

I am having trouble understanding if they are the same ship or 2 different ships — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.170.61.95 (talk) 15:27, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Plawski was the ship's captain.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:02, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Location; accuracy

[edit]

Suggested edit: Location given as ‘Clydebank, Glasgow’.

Clydebank is a separate town & has never been incorporated into Glasgow… 41.143.46.55 (talk) 13:17, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
