Photo of Medal of Honor Recipient Carlton Barmore Hutchins

Lieutenant Carlton Hutchins was pilot of the U.S. Navy Seaplane PBY-2 No. 0463 (11-P-3) which was engaged in tactical exercises with the U.S. Fleet on February 2, 1938, along the Coast of California. Although his plane was badly damaged, Lieutenant Hutchins remained at the controls endeavoring to bring the damaged plane to a safe landing and to afford an opportunity for his crew to escape by parachutes. His cool, calculated conduct contributed principally to the saving of the lives of all who survived. Lieutenant Hutchins was killed in the heroic performance of his duties.

Carlton Hutchins graduated from the US Naval Academy at Annapolis, Class of 1926.
