USS BASSETT DE-672 / APD-73 made her mark on history when her crew saved 150 sailors from the worst sea disaster in US Naval history. Her crew has been denied medals and recognition because of a "deal" made with the Navy. Many of the BASSETT crewmembers are fine without the medals, because they know the heroism that took place that night. Now, its time you know too.
Follow along with our transcript and check out the photos on our website.
