None. The harbor in Pearl is to swallow for a ship to "sink" that is for the ship to go under water and out of sight. Two battleships were listed as "lost". They were the Oklahoma because she capsized. The other was the Arizona because of the massive explosion ripped the ship almost in two. The other 6 battleships were damaged, some heavily. But were back in service before the end of the war. The Nevada was hitting targets on D-day. Others were hitting targets in the pacific. Hope this helps!
