USS Constitution is most famous for her actions during the War of 1812 against Great Britain, when she captured numerous merchant ships and defeated five British warships. On one of the battles, a British ship had many of their shots rebound harmlessly off Constitution's hull. A sailor reportedly exclaimed "Huzzah! her sides are made of iron!" This earned her the nickname, "Old Ironsides."
