How fictional shipgirls might remember historical commanders

Would any shipgirls have trouble meeting their historical admirals, and which ones?

Hood is imagined apologizing to Holland, while French ships at Mers-el-Kebir are suggested as more likely to feel anger; the premise also depends on the fictional setting.

A crossover question asks how personified ships would respond to the historical admirals who commanded them. Hood and Vice Admiral Holland provide the first example because he died aboard the ship. The proposed reaction is sorrow at having failed him rather than resentment toward him. The discussion notes that the premise fits some shipgirl settings better than Azur Lane's single-commander structure. French ships at Mers-el-Kebir are offered as more plausible sources of anger, and a brief correction identifies Strasbourg as the ship that escaped. These are speculative character responses built around remembered historical events.
