out of Adak right after we retook it from the Japs. He won the Air Medal there for jumping into the ocean and rescuing a downed pilot and then getting back on the PBY and flying it back to Adak. He always was a quiet man and didn't talk much until he became an Episcopal minister. Then he would only talk about God and never about WWII. I used to ask him what his sermon for Sunday was going to be and his answer was always the same "Sin, I'm against it."
