Submoh.jpg--Display of the World War II Medal of Honor recipients among
submarine commanders at the Submarine Museum at Pearl Harbor.  From left
to right: Howard Gilmore, who, when mortally wounded on the bridge,
ordered his ship, the Growler, to be submerged by ordering "Take her
down"; John Cromwell, who chose to go down with his ship, the USS
Sculpin, rather that let classified information he knew fall into the
hands of the Japanese; Sam Dealey, Captain of the USS Harder, who sank
five Japanese destroyers in one patrol only to be sunk by a sixth; Gene
Fluckey, Captain of the USS Barb, who entered a harbor on the coast of
China where about 30 Japanese ships were anchored and sank several of
them; Richard O'Kane, who sank 13 ships on the final patrol of the USS
Tang, only to have the last torpedo fired circle and sink his ship.  He
was interred in a POW camp until the end of the war; Lawson "Red"
Ramage, Captain of the USS Parche, who, in a surface engagement, sank
14,000 tons of shipping in 46 minutes in a night attack on a convoy;
George Street, Captain of the USS Tirante, who entered a Japanese harbor
and sank a tanker and two frigates, which tried to pursue his ship.
