"This man, during two emergencies, due to his initiative and thorough knowledge, has been largely responsible for the preservation of lives. In addition, with men who have experienced operational fatigue, he has shown good judgement in handling and treating them and has been most conscientious in presenting to his Captain the medical problems of the ship."
