English: Naval Battle of Guadalcanal, 12-15 November 1942: the U.S. Navy heavy cruiser USS San Francisco (CA-38) maneuvering under Japanese air attack off Guadalcanal, 12 November 1942. At 1416 hrs, an already-damaged Nakajima B5N torpedo bomber dropped its torpedo off San Francisco's starboard quarter. The torpedo passed alongside, but the plane crashed into San Francisco's control aft, swung around that structure, and plunged over the port side into the sea. 15 men were killed, 29 wounded, and one missing. Control aft was demolished. The ship's secondary command post, Battle Two, was burned out but was reestablished by dark. The after anti-aircraft director and radar were put out of commission. Three 20 mm mounts were destroyed.
