USS GATLING DD-671 https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...SS_Gatling.jpg...fired 77 tons of high explosives from her guns. She sank two enemy ships and splashed eight Japanese planes, either as kills or assists. In addition to her other rescue missions, preserving the lives of over 400 sailors, she saved 37 aviators forced to ditch at sea.

Eight battle stars for World War II service and one battle star for Korean War service.:arrgh!:
