the Navy christened a destroyer for Marine, an Irish-born recipient of the Navy Cross, who jumped on grenade in Vietnam to save his comrades in Vietnam... Patrick Gallagher.

Gallagher survived the grenade attack for which he was lauded for his heroism. But he didn’t survive his tour of duty in Vietnam.
