Hugh Spencer Daniel (December 26, 1923 – October 1942) was a United States Marine Corps Reservist who was posthumously awarded the Navy Cross. The destroyer escort USS Daniel (DE-335) was named after him. Daniel was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee. He enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve on June 9, 1941. Joining USS Hornet (CV-8) on 19 October 1941, he remained on board until shortly before his death 2 days after the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands on October 26, 1942. His rank was Private First Class. (Picture of Hugh Spencer Daniel ) ==Action off the Santa Cruz Islands==
The Hornet was attacked by Japanese bombers and torpedo planes on October 26 at 10:12. Daniel was wounded by shrapnel from an exploding bomb while at his station at an anti-aircraft battery. Despite his wounds, he replaced a wounded gun captain for over an hour. When his injury was discovered, he was twice taken from his gun to a dressing station, but insisted on returning each time. Finally he was transferred to a destroyer, and died of his wounds in his sleep two days later.
