The American cruiser templates seem to all insist that the Portland class ships came after the New Orleans class. Despite USS New Orleans being assigned CA-32 and USS Portland receiving CA-33, the Portlands were an older design and were, in fact, built first. Therefore I'm rearranging the order in the templates to reflect this. Dziban303 ( talk) 05:15, 9 December 2014 (UTC) reply
