Default Battleship sinkings in WW2 (Info for GWX perhaps?)

Since I like Navy games and naval history, I've got a bunch of books on WW2 naval combat, best one I've got is "The World's Great Battleships". And a convientent thing it has is a table of all the battleships/battlecruisers sunk during the course of the war.

I'll be posting them in order of Nationality. And I'll be updating this list as I get them in...so bare with me...
