| Description |
English: Lieutenant (Junior Grade) Carlton B. Hutchins, United States Navy. Photograph taken on 15 September 1934 when he was assigned to USS Memphis (CL-13). He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for "extraordinary heroism" on 2 February 1938 when, as pilot of a PBY-2 patrol bomber, he remained at the controls of his badly damaged aircraft after it collided with another PBY-2 off the California coast, thus affording an opportunity for other crew members to parachute to safety. Lieutenant Hutchins was killed in the plane's subsequent crash. |
