Of 1,196 men on board, approximately 300 went down with the ship. * * * The ship was never missed [after the sinking] * * * Unfortunately, the conviction for hazarding his ship by failing to zigzag remains on Captain McVay's record. Never in the history of the U.S. military has the verdict of a court-martial been overturned, and there is no known process for doing so")
