Since Superman is trending today, have you ever wondered why Clark Kent did not serve in the military during WWII? In the comic strip, Kent tried to enlist but was declared unfit for service due to his eyesight after he accidentally used his X-ray vision to read the wrong chart. pic.twitter.com/b993G69W0C— U.S. Naval Institute (@NavalInstitute) February 24, 2021

There was an entry in the NAVSEASYSCOM instructions on exactly how to paint the name on the stern of the John Hancock.
