Stennis family, in honor of this week being the anniversary of the Battle of Midway, we are honoring the brave heroes that helped made that victory possible. Today we remember Torpedomans Mate (Mechanical) 2nd Class Orville Mott. When Japanese planes roared low over Midways lagoon on June 4, 1942, TM2 Mott manned one of the two twin-.50-caliber mounts on board motor torpedo boat PT-24. He changed the inboard barrel of the starboard .50-caliber mount, wresting off the old, hot barrel, and burning his hands while so doing, while firing the outboard gun simultaneously.
