Buenos Aires, Argentina
The original bridge of ARA Alferez Sobral. Was attacked by british helicopters May 3 1982, when she was searching for a BAC Canberra crew. A missile punched the bridge, killing her skipper and others. She made the voyage to port. Still in service, with another bridge, of course.

Pics taken by myself, this morning at Argentine Naval Museum, Tigre.

Note the missile hole.
