CDR Raymond Evans, USCG passed away yesterday, at age 92.

 

He, as a Signalman First Class, along with his shipmate, Signalman First Class Douglas Munroe, went above and beyond the call of duty during the Battle of Guadalcanal. Despite receiving heavy Japanese fire, they bravely put themselves into harms way to rescue stranded Marines.

 

Please see the attached. SM1 Munroe was killed in this action and was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. SM1(later Commander) Evans was awarded the Navy Cross.
