Man I hope we get 'Shiny' Sheffield. As you say she did so much, yet doesn't seem to be that well known. Much sad she didn't get preserved. Amusingly they left some holes of splinter damage from Bismarck unrepaired right till the end.

She was also the first Brit ship to get radar.

I very much recommend finding a copy of HMS Sheffield by Ronald Basset, full story of all she did in the war, and nicely written too.
