Did anyone see the movie "Pearl Harbor"? The captain of the USS West Virginia, Mervin S Bennion, was mortally wounded when the Japanese struck on Dec 7th. Despite his wounds, he refused to leave the ship and continued to direct the battle/evacuation of the vessel.

That's very interesting, Joe!
Did you know that the first American pilot to shoot-down an enemy aircraft in combat lived his later years in Salt Lake, as a faculty member at the UofU, and is buried in the Salt Lake City cemetary? I located his grave some years ago; Glen Warchol wrote it up for the Tribune as a Memorial Day piece. He was flying as a volunteer for the French at the time of his victory in WWI, in the Lafayette Flying Corps, long before the US entered the war in 1917.
