	143k	Henry Hartley was born on 8 May 1884 in Bladensburg, Md. and enlisted in the Navy 1 February 1901. He came up through the ranks and was commissioned lieutenant 3 August 1920. A specialist in salvage work, Hartley was instrumental in salvaging the sunken submarines S-51 and S-4, for which he received the Navy Cross and the Distinguished Service Medal. After establishing the Deep Sea Diving School at Washington, D.C., in 1928 and serving as its commander, Hartley continued his pioneer research in techniques of salvage work. As technical aid to Rear Admiral Cyrus Cole, he helped supervise the dramatic rescue and salvage work on the sunken submarine Squalus in 1939. During World War II, Hartley served first in the Mediterranean, where his transport Susan B. Anthony participated in the invasion of Sicily, and then shifted to the Pacific. As commander of Chester, flagship of Service Squadron 10, Hartley participated in the Battle of Leyte Gulf, a major turning point of the war, and then engaged in bombardment and salvage work at Wake Island, Marcus Island, Iwo Jima, Haha Jima, and Okinawa. After commanding ServRon 10 for a year with the rank of Commodore, Hartley returned to Washington in March 1946 for special duty. After 46 years of service to his country, he retired with the rank of Rear Admiral 1 May 1947. Admiral Hartley died at Bethesda, Md., 6 March 1953. USS Hartley (DE1029) was the first ship named in his honor. (Gen. Pershing & Capt. H. Hartley, Photo Digital ID: ggbain 37119 Source: Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division)		Bill Gonyo
