Poor Jim, always getting picked on.

I was going to ask why it was that a British sub was named after a North American aboriginal people, before I remembered that Canada had the boat, making Ojibwa a perfectly sensible name. Hey, it's early and I'm still getting my coffee.

10 of 27 boats have been preserved either as museums or monuments (from Wikipedia) which is about 37% percent of class. Oberons (including our own...) have been treated kindly.
