Retired Capt. Jack Crawford said for decades after World War II, Midway was largely obscured from the national consciousness. Crawford said he wanted a good book written about the battle, and there wasn't one. So, Crawford encouraged a friend and former professor from the U.S. Naval Academy, Craig Symonds, to write one. Symonds later sent Crawford a signed copy of "The Battle of Midway." (U.S. Navy photo by Shawn Miller/RELEASED)
