Admiral: The Navy Career of Chick Hayward
by John T. Hayward, C. W. Borklund
Vice Adm. John T. "Chick" Hayward's long and colorful career spanned the decades
from naval aviation's infancy to the dawn of the jet age. He was one of those rare people
who was eminently successful yet humanly colorful, a high school dropout who became a
nuclear physicist. The story of his role in the development of the atomic bomb and his
interaction with the other Los Alamos scientists is justification enough for a biography,
but Hayward's contributions to the twentieth-century U.S. Navy go significantly beyond
that period. Hayward saw combat in World War II and participated in the Korean War and
Cuban missile crisis, and helped make many of the decisions that shaped the present-day
navy. Amazon.com

The Battle of the River Plate, Dec 1939, involved the Admiral Graf Spee, Exeter, Ajax,

commander, assuming a much superior force awaited him, scuttled his ship and then
committed suicide.
