NAVY'S PROUDEST MAN
Although any army or navy man is supposed to salute the American flag.
Ensign Warren F. Taylor of Submarine 48 was personally complimented by the Secretary of the Navy Denby because in watching the young ensign in a stand on Pennsylvania avenue during a parade last week, the secretary observed that "the young officer in the white uniform" never once "cheated or grew indifferent." Every time an American flag went by, and that was often, Ensign Taylor stood at rigid attention while he saluted
So when Taylor was called to the secretary's office he didn't know what it was all about, but when he came out he was the proudest man in the navy.
