The Battle of the River Plate, 1939. The surface raider and pocket-battleship 'Admiral Graf Spee' fought 3 cruisers of the Royal Navy ( HMS Achilles was from the New Zealand navy) and put into the neutral port of Montevideo (the capital of Uruguay) after suffering damage. The captain of the Graf Spee scuttled his ship in the harbour rather than face the British ships waiting for him and which he believed were growing in number.
