PQ17 provides an insight into one very important aspect of the war effort and presents a great sketch as to the psychological profile of both the Nazi and British governments re: warfare. Both enemies are amazingly unwilling to expose their capital ships despite the value of a convoy estimated to be 70 million dollars at that time. (An aircraft carrier cost 4 million). Nelson would have been aghast!
