I'm very happy to report to you that we placed Seaman 1/C John A. Moore's name on the aircraft back in May, shortly before the dedication of the exhibit. I fortunately discovered that Hall's normal gunner had been hit by a 7.7 round on the 7th. I can't remember were I finally discovered your Fathers name but found it in time to add it to the aircraft. In attendance at the opening was CV2 survivor Harry Frey from San Antonio. Send me your email to
historian@usslexington.com and I will send you some pictures of the display. We painted the plane exactly as it was on 8 May 1942. If you have any photos or artifacts you would like to share, please let me know.
Thanks
