Whatever happened to the guy he operated on? How long did he live after that, and did he suffer any consequences as a result of that operation.
This guy who did the operation should have gone on and got the schooling needed to become a surgeon.

...Rector was back on duty in 13 days. He died two years later aboard a different submarine, the USS Tang, when the Tang fired a torpedo that circled back and struck the vessel.
