Never forget." -- Vice Admiral John G. Morgan, Jr., United States Navy

aircraft carrier, including the Battles of Coral Sea and Midway, and eventually aviation duties in Alaska.
Truly not the usual war experiences of a member of his generation." -- Jack A. Green, Public Affairs Officer

". . . a compelling, action-filled story that moves quickly, while offering a rich array of interpretive notes and
timelines for great reflection and substance." -- Marsha Rooney, Curator of History

"Fate put Ray Daves in the middle of several defining moments in United States military history. In Carol

experienced during his 6 years, 4 months, 17 days, sixteen hours, and forty-two seconds in the US Navy.
Memories brought to life again in Hipperson's Radioman." -- Tim Schurtter, Program Officer
Veterans History Project, Library of Congress
