One thing I remember from the story which I think was shown on the History Channel, was of Capt. Evans.

The last one of the other destroyers saw of him was him badly wounded, manning the aft controls because the bridge had been shot away.

He ordered “abandon ship” and was never seen again. He was awarded the Medal of Honor.
