BAUSELL (DD 845) was launched on Mon- day, November 19, 1945, at Bath, Maine. She was named in honor of Corporal Lewis K. Bausell, U.S.M.C., who was awarded the CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR by a citation that read in part as follows: For conspi- cuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his own life, Corporal Bausell led the charge forward against a hostile pillbox, and swift to act as a Japanese grenade was hurled into their midst, Corporal Bausell threw himself on the deadly weapon, taking the full blast of the explosion and sacrificing his own life to save his men.
