William R. Anderson Quote

That I had been selected to receive an award known as the Medaglia de Grifone, or Christopher Columbus medal, given every year for outstanding contributions to sea travel. Admiral Rickover had been the recipient just the year before. Bonny and I traveled to Genoa, Italy, the birthplace and boyhood home of Columbus. On October 12, 1958, Columbus Day, we attended the black-tie awards ceremony. I accepted on behalf of everyone on board Nautilus and emphasized that no dramatic development in the history of modern man would be possible without the labor and genius of those who have gone before
