None of the Captain Class ever made it to the Pacific in the service of the Roayl Navy before the war ended. HMS Duckworth and Essington were earmarked for refits for service in the Pacific but the war ended there before this happened. HMS Bentley soon after VE Day was in dock at Cardiff for a refit and conversation to a fighter direction ship but when the Pacific war finished all work stopped.

It's possible some Landing Ships, Tank were involved with Operation Dracula, the amphibious and airborne operation against Japanese occupied Rangoon in 1945.
