Got to meet an amazing American today... A Midway submariner

[ssn705]

I was asked to be the guest speaker at the sub force museum's Battle of Midway commemoration today. In attendance as a guest of honor was retired Master Chief Deen Brown a radioman who was on USS Trout (SS-202) during the battle. He did eleven war patrols on Trout and Gar combined. What an amazing man to speak with. We talked for over a half hour before the ceremony and for a while afterwards as well. What a day.

Cheers,

Dave
