By coincidence, the vessel on which he later achieved fame (and death) was named after this bay.

Famous quotes containing the word service:
“Mr. Speaker, at a time when the nation is again confronted with necessity for calling its young men into service in the interests of National Security, I cannot see the wisdom of denying our young women the opportunity to serve their country.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
