USS Wahoo (SS-238) pulls into Pearl Harbor following the completion of her third war patrol. Future submarine ace and Medal of Honor recipient Richard O'Kane is at left with his foot triumphantly on the sub's railing. Wahoo, under the command of Dudley "Mush" Morton, had just completed a clean sweep of a Japanese convoy, sinking a total of five Japanese ships.
