Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ke koena mai ka lawelawe ʻana e ka US Navy ma 1946-1947. I ka makahiki 1951, ua hoʻoneʻe ʻia ʻeono o lākou i nā ʻāina ʻAmelika Hema (Argentina, Brazil, Chile); ua pau ke koena. ʻO ka hope o lākou i lawelawe a hiki i ka makahiki 1992 ma ka Navy Chilean.

USS Brooklyn

Ua waiho ʻia ka kiel no ka moku holo moku ʻo Brooklyn (CL-40) ma New York Navy Yard (ma New York) ma Malaki 12, 1935. Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka hull a me kahi ʻāpana o ka superstructure ma Nowemapa 30, 1936, a ua kauoha ʻia ka moku i hoʻopau ʻia ma ka lā 30 o Kepakemapa, 1937. Ua koho ʻia ʻo Commander W. D. Brereton i luna mua o ka moku. Ua hoʻonoho ʻia ʻo ia i Cruiser Squadron 8 a lawelawe ʻo ia ma US East Coast waters a hiki i ka hopena o 1938, e hana ana i nā mikiona hoʻomaʻamaʻa maʻamau a me ke komo ʻana i nā hoʻomaʻamaʻa pūʻulu ʻauwaʻa. I ka pūnāwai o 1939, ua komo ʻo ia i ka wehe ʻana o ka New York World Fair, a ma hope koke iho - ma waena o Mei 23 a me Iune 3 - ua lilo ʻo ia i moku kauoha i ka hana hoʻopakele kaulana o ka submarine Squalus (SS -192). i hāʻule ma kahi kokoke i Portsmouth i ka wā o ka hoʻāʻo ʻana i ka wai me ka hui holoʻokoʻa. Mahalo i kahi hana hoʻopakele nui, ua hoʻopakele ʻia nā lālā o 33 o 59 mau kānaka. Ua ʻeli ʻia ka moku, hoʻoponopono ʻia, a ma lalo o ka inoa hou ʻo Sailfish, ua lanakila ʻo ia i ka wā o ke Kaua Honua II, me ka hoʻopololei ʻana i 7 mau moku Iapana, me ka mea lawe ukali ʻo Chuyo.

Ma hope o ka holo ʻana i ke kahakai komohana o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, i ka lā 18 o Pepeluali, 1940, ua komo ka moku holo moku i ka Hōʻikeʻike Golden Gate ma Kapalakiko a ʻo ia kekahi o kāna mau mea hoihoi. Ua noho ʻo ia ma ka ʻoihana ma ke Kai Komohana a hiki i Malaki 1941, i kona hoʻomaka ʻana i kahi huakaʻi kula lōʻihi i nā kai o ka Pākīpika Hema, e kipa ana i nā awa he nui me ka lokomaikaʻi. Ua pau ka huakaʻi me ka hoʻi ʻana o ka moku i Pearl Harbor; Mai laila mai ʻo ia i haʻalele ai i Mei 1941 ma o ka Canal Panama a hiki i ka East Coast, kauoha ʻia e lawelawe ma ka Atlantika ma ke ʻano o ka Neutrality Patrol. Mai Iulai 1 a Iulai 7, 1941, ua komo ʻo ia i ka uhi ʻana i ka hui e lawe ana i ka pūʻali koa i nā kahua i Iceland. Ua hoʻomau ka lawelawe ʻana o ka moku holo moku Brooklyn ma nā kai ʻAkelanika a hiki i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kaua ma ka Pakipika. I Ianuali 1942, ua hoʻi ka moku i ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa no ka hoʻoponopono pōkole ʻana, a i loko o ia wā i hoʻokomo ʻia ai ʻehā mau pahu ʻehā 28-mm anti-aircraft pu ma luna o ka moku. Ua wehe ʻia nā pū mīkini 12,7 mm a hoʻololi ʻia me 12 mau pū hoʻokahi 20 mm anti-aircraft. Aia ka ʻike ihu Mk 34 i kahi antenna radar ahi Mk 3 i hoʻokomo ʻia.

Ma hope o ka hoʻoponopono ʻana, mai ʻApelila 1942, ua hoʻokō ka moku holo moku Brooklyn i ka lawelawe convoy ma ka Atlantika ma ke ala ma waena o ʻAmelika a me Beretania Nui. I ka Mei 1942, i ka wā o kahi noiʻi, ua hoʻokomo ʻia ka radar SK-2 ma luna o ka moku, a ua hoʻohui ʻia ka radar Mk 34 i ka ʻike hope o Mk 3. Ua hoʻi ka moku i ka lawelawe ma ka ʻAkelanika. I ʻOkakopa, ua haʻalele ʻo ia i ke kahua ʻo Norfolk a, me nā moku ʻē aʻe he nui o ka US Navy, holo ma ka ʻAkelanika a hiki i kahakai o ʻApelika ʻĀkau, kahi āna i komo ai i ka uhi ʻana i ka pae ʻana o nā pūʻali Allied. Ma ka lā 8 o Nowemapa, ua kākoʻo ʻo ia i ka pae ʻana ma ka ʻāina ʻo Fedhal me kāna mau pū. I ka lā 17 o Nowemapa, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo ia a hoʻoneʻe ʻia i ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. Mai Ianuali a Mei, ua kiaʻi ʻo ia i nā hui ʻAkelanika e holo ana mai ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a Casablanca. I ka Mei 1943, ua hana hou ia, a i loko o ia manawa ua hoʻokomo ʻia ʻehā mau puʻu puʻupuʻu 28-mm ma kahi o 40 mm mau pū anti-aircraft. Ua hoʻonui ʻia ka helu o 20-mm Oerlikons i 14 mau kūlana, ua hoʻokomo pū ʻia kahi radar SG, a ua hoʻolako ʻia nā mākaʻikaʻi Mk 33 me kahi radar Mk 4.

Ma hope o ka hoʻoponopono ʻana, ua hoʻouna ʻia ʻo Brooklyn i nā wai o ke Kai Mediterranean, kahi i komo ai i ka pae ʻana i nā Allied ma Sicily, e kākoʻo ana i ka pae ʻana me kāna mau pū ma Iulai 10-14, 1943. Mai Ianuali 22 a Pepeluali 9, 1944, 12. komo i ka uhi ʻana i ka pae pae ʻana o Anzio -Nettuno, a laila ma Mei 23-1944, 21, kiʻi ʻia i nā kūlana Kelemania ma Formia. Ua uhi pū ʻia ka pae ʻana ma kahakai o ka hema o Farani i ʻAukake o kēia makahiki. Ma Nowemapa 1945, haʻalele ka moku holo moku i ke Kai Mediterranean a hoʻi i ʻAmelika no ka hoʻoponopono ʻana, a hiki i Mei 40. I loko o kēia hoʻoponopono ʻana, ua hoʻonui ʻia ka hull, e loaʻa ana nā pahu hoʻoneʻe ma luna o ka moku (nā ʻōpū), a ua hoʻoikaika ʻia ka pū nui me ʻelua pūʻali pū. nā pūkuniahi māhoe 20-mm, a ua pani ʻia ka pūkuniahi 10-mm me 20 mau pahu pahu pālua, ʻo ia hoʻi. ʻo nā kumu lāʻau XNUMX.

Ma hope o ka pau ʻana o ka hoʻoponopono - ʻaʻole i komo hou i nā hana kaua - ua hana ʻo ia i nā huakaʻi hoʻomaʻamaʻa ma ka wai o East Coast a me Atlantika a hiki i kona hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana ma Ianuali 3, 1947. Ma hope o ka mothballing, aia ʻo ia i ka mālama moana. Ma ka lā 9 o Ianuali 1951, ua kūʻai ʻia ʻo ia i ka Navy Chilean, kahi i kapa hou ʻia ai ʻo O'Higgins. ʻO ka moku ma lalo o kēia inoa i lawelawe ma Chile no nā makahiki he 40 a ʻoi aku; i ka makahiki 1992 ua kākau ʻia a kūʻai ʻia aku no ka ʻōpala.

USS Philadelphia

Ua hoʻomaka ke kūkulu ʻia ʻana o ka moku holo moku CL-41 ma ka hale kūʻai moku ʻo Philadelphia Navy i ka lā 28 o Mei, 1935. Ua kapa ʻia ʻo Philadelphia a ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ma Nowemapa 17, 1936; Ua lawe ʻia ka moku i hoʻopau ʻole ʻia i ka lā 23 o Kepakemapa, 1937. Ua koho ʻia ʻo Commander Jules James i luna mua. Ma hope o ka pau ʻana o ka hoʻāʻo ʻana i ka hana moku a me ka hana lole, ma Ianuali 3, 1938, haʻalele ka mea holo moku iā Philadelphia a hele i kahi huakaʻi hoʻomaʻamaʻa i ke Kai Caribbean, kahi āna i noho ai a hiki i ʻApelila. Ma Mei, ua hoʻi ʻo ia i nā kai Karipiano me Pelekikena Franklin D. Roosevelt ma luna o ka moku no kekahi mau lā ʻoiai ʻo ka US Navy e alakaʻi ana i nā hoʻomaʻamaʻa. Ma Iune 28, 1938, ua lilo ʻo Philadelphia i poʻokela o ka 8th Cruiser Squadron.
