Although the USS Brooklyn indeed did not serve in the Pacific several of her sisters did, seeing quite a bit of action, so I think she was included as a generic US CL type.

Incidently the General Belgrano was the ex USS Phoenix, a Brooklyn class ship, and IIRC was at Pearl Harbour on 7th December 1941.
