Library
Play 		I'm USS CL-50 Helena. I was built as the 2nd of the St. Louis-class light cruisers. I experienced the air attack on Pearl Harbor, and fought fiercely with the best the Japanese Navy had to offer at the Battle of Cape Esperance, the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal, and the Battle of Kula Gulf.

Helena, ここまでですか？水が、冷たい。提督、また会いましょう。また、ね？
  1. ↑ Sub-class of the Brooklyn-class light cruisers.
  2. ↑ USS Wasp was sunk by I-19's infamous torpedo salvo while covering a landing convoy at Guadalcanal - Helena was with her and rescued the survivors.
  3. ↑ All of Helena's major battles were chaotic night battles during the Guadalcanal campaign.
  4. ↑ Helena was equipped with advanced SG Radar after repairing her damage at Pearl Harbor, but at Esperance and Guadalcanal/Third Battle of the Solomon Sea, the American commanders were inexperienced in their tactical usage, leading to chaos. These experiences led to the American invention of the CIC (Combat Information Center).
  5. ↑ This could be either a reference to the broken Japanese code or the efforts of Rear Admiral Norman Scott to integrate surface search radar and gunfire control before the battle of Cape Esperance
  6. ↑ This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
  7. ↑ Helena's former commanding officer for the first months of the war, Robert Henry English was awarded a Distinguished Service Medal after he was killed in a plane crash in 1943.
