How does Captain Price die?

Price's final mission took place on October 27, 1944. Waters, Price, and Evans were accused of sabotaging Tirpitz's German battleship by damaging her boilers and anti-air radar systems. After murdering a Kriegsmarine commander, he utilized his mastery of the German language and falsified papers to infiltrate the battleship, with Evans acting as Kriegsmarine's officer. The couple eventually made it to the armory. After interrogating him at a checkpoint, a German officer phoned the bridge to verify Price's documents. Fearing that they would be discovered, Price assassinated the officer and another German sailor, notifying the whole crew. Price was finally overcome and murdered while attempting to defend Evans as he put explosives on the ship's boilers. At the mission's end, Sergeant Waters says Price was a "very fine man."
