The USS Astoria saw action in a number of Pacific war zones, including the Battle of the Coral Sea, and was eventually sunk in the Battle of Savo Island off the Solomon Islands August 1943. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Astoria_(CA-34)

Typo: USS Astoria (and sisters USS Vincennes and USS Quincy) were sunk in Aug 1942 along with HMAS Canberra. All the wrecks remain in Ironbottom Sound, Solomons, at least two of them leaking oil.
