About the ship
A light cruiser specifically designed for operations alongside destroyers. During World War II, USS Atlanta participated in the Battle of Midway and provided cover for U.S. naval task groups off the coast of the Solomon Islands. On November 12, 1942, during the Battle of Guadalcanal, the cruiser was struck by a torpedo from a Japanese destroyer, followed by several accidental hits from 203 mm shells fired by an American ship. On the following day, the cruiser was sunk on her captain's orders while being towed. Over the course of the war, the ship was awarded five battle stars.
