Navy Honors Bay Area Yacht Heroes of World War II
In a Treasure Island ceremony thirteen Bay Area yachtsmen were honored for their World War II warning line off the West Coast. The crews, many 50 to 60 foot sloops, risked Japanese incursions in May 1942 to alert the mainland if ships were spotted. One crew member described seasick sailors, and skipper Dennis Jordan recalled a near radio failure but a tanker misidentified as enemy.
