Overview
With the beginning of World War II, restrictions on building heavy cruisers were lifted. A new ship was based on USS Wichita, but it was decided to go for a more substantial change in the design, strengthening the anti-aircraft armament. USS Baltimore took part in fire support and covering missions in support of such operations as the Kwajalein invasion, the raid on Truk, the Eniwetok seizure, and the Mariana and Palau Islands attacks. She fought in the Battle of the Philippine Sea and participated in the invasion of Okinawa and Iwo Jima.
