Possibly less than a dozen SS merchant ships were torpedoed by I-Boats off the coasts of Oregon, Washington, and California.
Only the battleship, USS Oklahoma is known to be sunk between California and Hawaii; along with a cluster of US Navy cruisers, destroyers, and submarines sunk as targets after the war.
The USS Oklahoma sunk after the war in '46, while being towed to Calfornia for re-cycling (scrapping), her cables snapped (parted) and she sunk at sea. Oklahoma was raised from the bottom of Pearl Harbor after being sunk there on December 7, 1941 (she sunk twice).
