DD-793 Cassin Young named to his honorCMH: "Comdr. Young proceeded to the bridge and later took personal command ofthe 3-inch antiaircraft gun. When blown overboard by the blast of the forwardmagazine explosion of the U.S.S. Arizona, to which the U.S.S. Vestal wasmoored, he swam back to his ship. The entire forward part of the U.S.S.Arizona was a blazing inferno with oil afire on the water between the 2 ships;as a result of several bomb hits, the U.S.S. Vestal was afire in severalplaces, was settling and taking on a list. Despite severe enemy bombing andstrafing at the time, and his shocking experience of having been blownoverboard, Comdr. Young, with extreme coolness and calmness, moved his ship toan anchorage distant from the U.S.S. Arizona, and subsequently beached theU.S.S. Vestal upon determining that such action was required to save hisship."
