Historical Background
The Altmark was a German supply ship built in the late 1930s and served as an important support vessel for the Kriegsmarine during World War II. She provided fuel and supplies for the pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee during its long-range operations.
The ship later became internationally known because of the Altmark Incident in February 1940, when British naval forces boarded the vessel in Norwegian waters to rescue Allied prisoners. The incident increased tensions between Britain and Germany and became one of the events associated with the German campaign in Norway.
