He received the Navy Cross for heroism in the Battle of Coral Sea and served with great valor as a destroyer screen commander for the fast carrier task force operations in the Pacific as well as a bombardment group commander in the Marshalls and Marianas campaigns. He was awarded the Legion of Merit for command of his destroyer fire support in the Marianas campaign, the Silver Star Medal for gallantry in commanding the destroyer screen for carriers striking the Palaus, the Phillippines and the Marianas; the Bronze Star Medal for heroic actions as Commander Scouting Line for the fast carries force bound for the raids early in 1945 in Okinawa, Tokyo and Formosa. Upon the close of World War II, Vice Admiral commanded the light cruiser USS ASTORIA (CL 90); was a member of the staff of the Officer (Naval Reserve) under the Chief of Naval Operations; and was Senior Military Attache, Taiwan, before successive command of Destroyer Flotilla 4 and Cruiser Flotilla 4.
