**Norwegian Sea, 1941.** **The HMS Belfast cuts through the grey Atlantic, bound for a secret destination. Dawn breaks over the water-covered horizon, casting a dark blue hue across the 5 AM deck. Crew members, from Masters-At-Arms to Lieutenants, stir from slumber. Royal Marines march through the corridors as chefs rush to the Mess Hall kitchen. Three cooks prepare for breakfast service. Roll Call is scheduled for 11 AM, leaving a window of free time. The ship maintains a strict curfew, life aboard continues amidst the vast ocean.**
