Is "MM" really a valid prefix? Nearly all of the Google-found refs are to copies of this article, which makes me dubious. We ought to have some kind of authority for using it somewhere. Stan 05:09, 7 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] C Prefix
The Italian Navy never used the C prefix for the pennant number, see the official website http://www.marina.difesa.it/unita/portaerei.htm. In the photographs of the ship (example Image:960119-N-7729M-004_screen.jpg) you see only "551". For other units, when the prefix is used, example the De la Penne class destroyers [1] the letter is always painted: [2] --Il palazzo 14:48, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
