Arrr! A German sea beast rolled into London on a fine Monday morn, blaring the dark tune of that scallywag Darth Vader! Aye, the Imperial March echoed through the docks like a siren’s call, makin’ landlubbers jump and sailors chuckle. What a jolly jest, me hearties!

Ahoy, mateys! Gather 'round fer a tale of a German vessel, the Braunschweig, which sailed into London’s fair Thames, blastin' the ominous tune of Darth Vader’s “Imperial March.” A spectacle fit fer a pirate’s eye, it be! The crew were merely takin' on supplies, but the music choice had the landlubbers scratchin' their heads, wonderin' if it be a dark omen or just a jolly jest. But fret not, for the German navy declared there be "no deeper message" behind the tune, sayin' the commander be free to choose his melodies.

As the ship cruised in, it then decided to serenade the crowd with “London Calling” by The Clash, o’ course! A clever choice fer a boat makin' port in the land of tea and crumpets. The commander, a true fan of John Williams' legendary scores, be known to pick a different tune with each foreign shore he visits—quite the cultured corsair, eh?

When it be time to depart, a trusty tugboat escorted the Braunschweig, with sailors standin' on deck, not a lightsaber in sight. A good laugh for the crew and onlookers alike, as this seafarin' adventure surely be one fer the history books of the high seas! Arrr!
