Battle of Cape Esperance lists Furutaka rather than Furutawa. Are these two different ships, or is one an error? — B.Bryant 09:14, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Propeller, anchor, and bell

A little while ago, I added a bit of information about Helena's propeller, bell, and anchor being kept at a park in Helena, MT. This was removed, with the explanation that they probably came from the next Helena (CA-75). However, stamped onto the propeller is the statement that it was made in the 1930's, which makes the propeller too early to belong to the latter vessel.
