HMAS Canberra was one of four Allied cruisers sunk in the early morning hours of August 9, 1942 in the Battle of Savo Island off Guadalcanal. Although the ship survived the initial battle, the damage received was too great and the ship was scuttled by a torpedo from an American destroyer around 8 AM on the morning of the 9th. Canberra suffered 193 casualties in the battle, including 84 killed or missing in action.
The HMAS Sydney was involved in a mutually destructive engagement with the German auxiliary cruiser Komoran on November 19, 1941.
