Other Comments:


Admiral Wallin was the Chief Salvage officer after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Early in 1942, he was placed in charge of the Pearl Harbor Navy Yard's Salvage Division. Through most of 1942, he directed the Pearl Harbor ship salvage effort, a huge task that enabled the Navy to recover the use of three sunken battleships.
