Yes. Rammed an RAN destroyer and a USN destroyer. How many killed? Never fired a shot in anger and had numerous other collisions, crew members killed and lost aircraft. Yes, infamous.

Orionsbelt, you need a U.K. address to open a UK account, but once you have it you can move overseas and still keep it. Mine happily sends all my bank correspondence to my address in France.
