Disappeared / sunk mysteriously in the Caribbean in 1942, I think!! Could her 8in guns fire directly to port/starboard? Think of the recoil!!

Robbie,
There were quite a few rumours on her loss - another rumour is that she supplying German Uboats and was caught supplying a uboat and was sunk by two US subs.
