Hugging the shore and protected by a destroyer green and fight escort

Hugging the shore and protected by a destroyer green and fight escort, the German cruiser Prinz Eugen was sighted on Sunday evening May 17th steaming southwards along the Norwegian Coast,
She was attacked by torpedo and bomb-carrying aircraft of Coastal Command, R.A.F. operating more than 300 miles from their base. The Prinz Eugen had been undergoing repairs in the Lo Fjord, Trondheim, after her escape from the Brest in company with the Gneisenau and Scharnhorst.
