In this circa 1943 photo provided by the U.S. Navy, C. Wade McClusky Jr. poses for an official portrait. McClusky made one of the most fateful decisions of World War II, yet his actions during a history-changing battle have received scant recognition. That will change in his hometown of Buffalo, New York, where a statue of his likeness will be included in a new military monument being dedicated June 4, 2017, the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Midway.
