Arethusa was the lead ship of Arethusa-class light cruisers. Built by E-country in 1930s, the Arethusa-class cruisers had low tonnage in order to ensure the construction of more ships. In WWII, Arethusa participated in the Northern Europe Campaign in 1940. She was assigned to Force H and attended Operation Catapult in July 1940 in order to attack F-country ship before they would have been taken by G-country. Arethusa was mainly used to escort other ships during operations in Malta in 1942, and she participated in the Normandy Landings in 1944. She retired after WWII in 1950.
