The Naval Heroes of CVL-23 USS PRINCETON

USS PRINCETON CVL-23 ... The Battle of Leyte Gulf ... October 24, 1944 ...This video is a tribute to my uncle, William K. Taylor, and all those who served aboard the USS Princeton during World War II. On October 24, 1944, the carrier was part of Task Force 38.3, commanded by Admiral Bull Halsey, supporting General Douglas MacArthur's landing force on Leyte Island in the Philippine Islands. On the morning of the 24th, the Princeton was attacked by Japanese land based bombers and was hit by one 500 pound bomb on the flight deck. My uncle was one of many of the crew that was topside at their stations when this happened. As a result of the one bomb hit, the carrier was damaged beyond repair and late that same afternoon, was sunk by torpedoes fired from the USS Reno. This is my tribute to my uncle and all of his shipmates that served aboard the Princeton with him, and to those veterans that are still with us today and are men who I am glad to call my friends. Special thanks to Eugene Mitchell, whose contributions from his own personal files helped make this video possible.

Iraqi veteran kicked off train on return trip home
A soldier returning from Iraq in full combat uniform was thrown off a train after a ticket inspector from Cross Country Trains demanded proof he was eligible for an Armed Forces discount. It seemed that wearing full combat uniform was not good enough proof of being in the Armed Force, and the inspector was more interested in his commission.
