Yes. The USS Oklahoma was in Pearl Harbor during the attack. It took the first hit by a Japanese torpedo that morning and is still at the bottom of the Harbor.Correction - The Oklahoma was salavged and sold for scrap metal. While she was being towed to California in 1947, she sank in the Pacific. Only the USS Arizona and USS Utah remain in Pearl Harbor.
The USS Oklahoma took three torpedo hits almost immediately after the first Japanese bombs fell. As she began to capsize, two more torpedoes struck home, and her men were strafed as they abandoned ship. Within 12 minutes after the attack began, she had rolled over until halted by her masts touching bottom, her starboard side above water, and a part of her keel clear.
