The Navy, in its infinite wisdom, sent him to radar school instead, but Bus finally wrangled a transfer to the carrier Liscome Bay-a transfer that fell through when doctors found he had a hernia. He has no regrets: Liscome Bay was later torpedoed off the Gilbert Islands, and went down with most of her crew...
