Talk:Henry Laub

Not an officer
Henry Laub was a midshipman. Midshipmen are not officers.Royalcourtier (talk) 21:03, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

Notability
I realize that two ships have been named after this young midshipman. But there is no reason indicated why this should be so. Many midshipmen died, none of the others were commended by congress or had ships named for them. There must have been a reason, and this should be given.Royalcourtier (talk) 21:05, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
