The list of actions receiving commendation that day is amazing (and terrible). Reading it, it reminded me that it's good the Navy dropped the silly idea of eliminating the traditional ratings for generic codes, and brought them back. They in and of themselves are full of history.

Fewer and fewer of the survivors left. One is Lou Conter, who was piped in as he arrived in Honolulu International. A fitting honor and great moment.
