White Hat Gold Braid Marine Green
by Thomas Powell
Of this autobiography, the author states, "This is a chronology of my twenty-six years of naval service preceded by a brief resume of my early years. This story needed telling and could not be told by anyone else. From my first enlistment in 1932, to Occupation Duty in Nagasaki/Sasebo, Japan in 1945/46, and until retirement in 1958, my duties were varied, interesting and sometimes hazardous...No one else that I know of served in actions where four flag officers and one general officer lost their lives.
