27 May must be "battleship" day. The Bismarck was sunk (scuttled actually, according to Dr. Ballard's expedition) on 27 May 1941. Coincidentally, on that same day and month, history's only modern decisive battleship fleet action, which occurred on 27 May 1907, was fought; the Battle of Tsushima. 7 Russian battleships were sunk that day.

What was famous of Bismarck for?

It's famous because British writer Cecil S. Forester wrote a book about it in 1959, and the British made a film about it called "Sink the Bismarck" in 1960. Otherwise, it sank itself on it's maiden voyage rather than letting the British navy take credit for sinking it. German sailors (there were hundreds of survivors) had been stating for years that THEY scuttled the Bismarck, and the Royal Navy didn't sink it. Dr. Ballard dove on the vessel in the 1980's and proved that the German's were correct! They sunk their own ship!
