| Tribunus Laticlavius | Was it the battle of the Java Sea in, I believe 1941? The Dutch got creamed there by the Japanese and we lost our great admiral Karel Doorman? |

| Chief Engineer  | The battle took place in what is now called Iron Bottom sound. It also was a battle in which two US Admirals were killed I believe it was called the Battle of Savo Straits (not sure of spelling)
