    Nope, it is not Henderson, since he was a marine aviator....

    Hint: USMC

    Its kinda hard to give any more hints, without giving it away, so I`ll just post a new question.
    By the way it was Lt William Dean Hawkins, killed on Betio in 1943, and the airfield there was named after him. He also won the medal of honor.

    Next one

    Well,I have to take a guess again. Opitnii Destroyer. A one off experimental ship with 3 130mm guns. Many new tech solutions put into a small vessel. Cant really find a picture of it, but several of the features were later employed on the Tashkent Class, like the turrets. The picture has several similarities to the Tashkent, as well as being smaller, so its my guess that it is the Opitnii Destroyer.
