HMS Achilles!

'She played herself in the film'
I could never understand why the ship in the movie only had three turrets; apparently one was bombed out later in the Pacific War.
The ship didn't actually get scrapped until 1978.
You'd think the buggers would have hung onto her by then.
I mean she would have practically been an institution.
Would it have killed them?
