DE CLASSIFIED

USS BASSETT DE-672 / APD-73 made her mark on history when her crew saved 150 sailors from the worst sea disaster in US Naval history. Her crew has been denied medals and recognition because of a "deal" made with the Navy. Many of the BASSETT crew are fine without medals because they know the heroism that took place that night, but now it’s time you know too.
