Dick O’Kane was the best sub skipper of the war. Learned as XO under Mush Morton, and set his own records in Tang. Would have done even more had his sub not been shot out under him by his own torpedo. He finished the war in a Japanese POW camp.

[InMemoriam]

George Grider, in his book Warfish, describes Morton thus, "The only risk he recognized was the risk of not sinking Japanese tonnage."
