By the way, since the Indianapolis was a CA, did the USA lose any battleship at all during WWII? I mean apart from the ones at Pearl Harbour.
Just curious since the other major navies all lost battleships at sea. Of the Soviets I do not know whether the Marat (bombed in port by Hans-Ulrich Rudel) was their only battleship loss, but it was lost in an air raid, much like the Pearl Harbour battleships.
Kind regards,
Eichenlaub
