My Father on the USS Yorktown

My father is in the front row, far left.
My mother wrote:  U.S. Navy - USS Yorktown Aircraft Carrier

My father wrote the following:
April 2, 1944    In the Shop   Arrow to "my helmet"

L to R Top row.  W. Musson, N. Trepaskp, W. Rosenbaum, E. Hoegeman
Mid row:  C. Culbertson, R. Pagel, T. Mosbey, L. Goldsmith, C. McCarthy
Bottom row:  ? (my father)  Lt. J. O. Hatchet, J. Jones, Lt. G. H. Klans and J. McCormick

(There are probably errors, as he always had terrible penmanship. If anybody wants to make a correction, I would love to hear from you.)

 (It was interesting to see where he was in World War II.)
