John Joseph Doherty

John Joseph Doherty (born 26 February 1919 in Charlestown, Boston, Massachusetts)[1] enlisted in the United States Navy Reserve March 1, 1940 and was appointed aviation cadet July 9, 1940.

Awarded Distinguished Flying Cross

Assigned to Bombing Squadron 6 on board USS Enterprise (CV-6), Ensign Doherty was reported missing in action February 1, 1942 during the Marshall Islands raid.[1] He received posthumously a special Letter of Commendation from the United States Secretary of the Navy for his devotion to duty and disregard of his own safety in accomplishing his mission in addition to the Distinguished Flying Cross.[1]

gollark: Minoteaur 7.1 had file management capabilities, but while working on this now I realized I suddenly realized that this could probably be combined with the content model rework somehow, accursedly.
gollark: But I also really don't like writing much code, and want to generalize and combine features as much as possible. Which causes more problems.
gollark: The main causes of this are:- I wanted it to be interactable with externally via an API of some kind, and operating on text strings for that is kind of æ æa æ ææææ æææ.- I wanted some kind of structured data handling mechanism, partly for APIous purposes - see DokuWiki's `struct` plugin, and a cool feature a random journaling website has where you can use `CAPSTHING: bees` in a page and get tables out- I also thought that the design of all previous Minoteaurs, which made pages entirely text strings, hampered rich editing capabilities (such as "to-do lists" where you could easily check/uncheck things, and arbitrarily-nested-bullet-point "outliner" stuff)
gollark: However, design of this in any detail requires making decisions, which immediately induces apionic "bee" incursions.
gollark: If you want to know what the reworks are to be, and you do, then basically: I wanted to alter the content model, so that pages could contain multiple units of content, and of different kinds.
