The German warship, “Braunschweig” sailed into London playing the “Star Wars” Darth Vader theme, surprising onlookers with its choice of music.
The ship’s commander, a “Star Wars” fan, chose this tune for fun, not for any political statement. After the Darth Vader theme, they played “London Calling” by The Clash, blending entertainment with a nod to the city. This visit was part of routine naval training but was marked by this unusual musical choice, showing how naval visits can mix tradition with pop culture for a bit of fun.
