He knew his boat was lost, but did what he could to save as many of her crew as he could- over Cromwell's objections. But for Connaway's actions, the <i> Sculpin</i> would have been lost with all hands.Chief Illiniwreckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15871667883021568981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-33704983558379143412013-06-05T12:25:00.113-04:002013-06-05T12:25:00.113-04:00Very brave man in a company of brave men.

Sculpin had come to her aid 4 years earlier, and her efforts led to the rescue of 33 of her men.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-30627264021216573472013-05-27T22:24:57.734-04:002013-05-27T22:24:57.734-04:00Greater love hath no man, and all that...excuse me...Greater love hath no man, and all that...excuse me, I have something in my eye...both eyes...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-65240542840323364992013-05-27T15:57:37.724-04:002013-05-27T15:57:37.724-04:00 Thanks for your service to all Armed Forces perso...
