Actually I was quite surprised reading his name in “Halsey’s Typhoon”
A younger Gerald Ford risked his life to save other sailors.

My respect for President Gerald Ford went up buy 1000% after reading that section of the book.

I’m not a Navy Vet so I don’t claim to know the whole story of “Halsey’s Typhoon” but it was an interesting book.

Great book. Gerald Ford has his flaws, no doubt. But he served honorably.
