"David and Goliath - Modern Version"

Artwork by James Sessions, depicting Lieutenant John D. Bulkeley's PT-34 torpedoing a Japanese ship in Binanga Bay, Bataan, Philippines, 19 January 1942.
The ship is depicted as a cruiser, but was actually a freighter. Though reportedly hit and sunk, this is not confirmed in Japanese records.
