Dudley "Mush" Morton was the commander of the United States Navy submarine "USS Wahoo" (SS-238) during World War II.  "Wahoo" was one of the most celebrated submarines of World War II, as it sank at least 19 Japanese ships, more than any other submarine early in the war, a time when America needed a hero.

In 1960, Vice Admiral Charles A. Lockwood, Jr., ComSubPac during World War II, wrote about Morton: "When a natural leader and born daredevil such as Mush Morton is given command of a submarine, the result can only be a fighting ship of the highest order, with officers and men who would follow their skipper to the Gates of Hell... And they did." 

"Morton lined up an impressive number of 'firsts' during the short ten months that he commanded Wahoo: first to penetrate an enemy harbor and sink a ship therein; first to use successfully a down the throat shot; and first to wipe out an entire convoy single-handed."

Celebrate an American hero, and educate your friends, with this homage tee.
