PLA(N):
Liaoning steams through China's Yellow Sea during a formation training exercise on Dec. 23. 2015. Bought unfinished from Ukraine under false pretenses by a Chinese national, Liaoning became China's first operational aircraft carrier to enter service. The blueprints were sent to China overnight when the sale was agreed to, just in case it fell through.

Italy:
September 9, 1943, battleship Roma was struck by the second of two Fritz X devices that hit her that day at 1552h, and some ten seconds later her fore magazine deflagrated. However, she took several minutes to sink (she did not go under until 1611), she did not break in two until she had capsized, and as a result a third of her crew was able to survive.

USS Narwhal (SS-167) at sea, 1931

USS Narwhal was one of nine specialized V-boats. Often used to ferry supplies and support clandestine operations for USFIP soldiers and guerrillas. When the submarine USS Narwhal arrived at Mindanao in Nov. 1943 to deliver supplies, the crew was met by a uniformed band playing "Stars and Stripes Forever." Narwhal's large size enabled it to deliver 100 tons of supplies at a time, whereas other submarines could only deliver four tons or less. This greatly increased the ability of the guerrilla forces not only to inflict damage to the enemy, but also provide the necessary supplies to care for the medical health and well-being of the guerrilla forces and their civilian supporters. In addition, USS Narwhal had the room to evacuate guerrillas needing critical medical care, as well as American civilians, primarily women and children, who had been hiding out in the Philippines and were suffering from malnutrition and diseases. According to U.S. Navy records, 16 of 41 resupply missions to the Philippines were directed to Mindanao between January 14, 1943 and January 1, 1945. For all of the Philippines, a total of 1,325 tons of supplies were landed, with 331 people landed and another 472 evacuated.

From her war diary: "Proceeding to new rendezvous for fueling. Course taken however led task force directly into center of typhoon. Seas very rough, wind to 80 knots. Took on emergency ballast. Course changed to 060° but unable to hold heading. Task force changed to 220°. Somewhat better course but seas beating our sides very heavily. Ship rolled a maximum of 55°. Seas carried away whale boat and skids, bent boat davit, bashed in port bulkhead, carried away float nets and other loose deck gear. Flooded steering engine room, carried away TBS antennae, grounded out mark 12 radar. 1400 Course changed to 120°, wind hauling around to southwest. Barometer rising. 1700 Wind dropped to 30 knots, seas smoothing out some. Course 220°. Speed 11 knots. MADDOX only escort out of 9 remaining with tanker group. Have only enough oil for about 20 hours. Have secured split plant and steaming cross-connected. For a while today it was touch and go as to whether we capsized or not."
