He is one of the 'British' Chilean heroes, with streets and warships ships named after him. - BFB

.....as well as two ships and a major shore establishment at Rosyth named after him in the Royal Navy, the latter only having closed in 1996.

He also has a direct descendant who served fairly recently as a Commodore in the Royal Navy.
