| Description | Lot-5410-16: On 9 October 1918, while escorting HMS Aquitania, USS Shaw's (DD-68) rudder jammed just as she was completing the right leg of a zigzag, leaving her headed directly towards the transport. Aquitania then struck Shaw, cutting off 90 feet of the destroyer's bow, mangling her bridge and setting her on fire. Shaw's crew heroically brought her damage under control. 12 lives were lost.
