USS Canberra (CA-70)
USS Canberra (CA-70)
was a Baltimore class heavy cruiser that was badly damaged by a
Japanese torpedo during the battle off Formosa (12-16 October 1944) but
that was towed to safety, a remarkable achievement that also helped to
convince the Japanese that they had inflicted heavy damage on the
American fleet.
