Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Gordon Pai ea Chung-Hoon, (Honolulu, Hawaii, July 25, 1910 July 24, 1979) was an admiral in the United States Navy, who served during World War II, and the first Asian American flag officer. His father, William Chung-Hoon Jr., a Chinese English Hawaiian, was a County Treasurer and his mother Agnes Punana, a Hawaiian, was a member of the Kaahumanu Society. He graduated from Punahou School in 1929. He attended the United States Naval Academy and graduated in May 1934, becoming the first Asian American, U.S. citizen graduate of the academy. While a student he gained national prominence as the football team's halfback and punter, and in 1934 starred on the team that broke an 11 year winless streak against the Army team. He is a recipient of the Navy Cross and Silver Star for conspicuous gallantry and extraordinary heroism as commanding officer of USS Sigsbee from May 1944 to October 1945.
