	Scharnhorst - The History - The Scharnhorst at Brest, France
		Ciliax was one of the few senior officers who not only believed the Channel dash possible, he was actually enthusiastic about it.
		The plan, as Ciliax told his captains and heads of departments on his return from East Prussia, was that Scharnhorst, Gneisenau and Prinz Eugen should leave Brest on the night of 11 February with an escort of six destroyers.
		Ciliax's fleet was now freed from the danger of an early torpedo attack.

		But despite the careful watch of British subs and aircraft, German Vice Admiral Otto Ciliax launched Operation Cerberus to lead the ships out of the French port.
		The Germans, who had controlled and occupied France since June 1940, drew British fire deliberately, and the Gneisenau, Scharnhorst, and Prinz Eugen used the resulting skirmish as a defensive smoke screen.

		Beginning with a number of torpedo armed Swordfish biplanes who got exterminated to the very last, ending -again- with the Spitfires who got slaughtered, showing the RAF was still far from being capable of challenging the Luftwaffe on its own -also speaking of the capabilities of the Royal Navy-.

		General Otto Forster, the engineer-general who had already incurred Hitler’s displeasure once in a 1938 dispute over fortifications, was dismissed for withdrawing his corps ; General von Sponeck, who had abandoned Kerch, was sentenced to be shot (though Hitler later commuted this sentence).
		General Hoepner, who prematurely withdrew his panzergruppe to the winter line on January 8, was dismissed from the army in disgrace.
		Hitler was taken aback by Vice Admiral Otto Ciliax’s insistence on reaching the seventeen-mile-wide Dover Straits at high noon, but this was inevitable if the warships were to slip out of Brest under cover of dusk.
