"Because he opposed the war, he first claimed status as a conscientious
objector and chose civil service as a firefighter as an alternative
to the military. He was eventually forced to enlist and given
a noncombat position in the Pacific as a medic and lab technician aboard
Army ships. ... Upon his discharge in 1945, Mr. Faux entered the Hartford
Seminary in Connecticut, graduated and began preaching as a Quaker minister."

the largest naval engagement of World War II. His entire crew of
nine perished. Although a search was conducted, their bodies were
