Redirect to
USS Bangust. Fails
WP:SOLDIER (Aviation Machinist mate 2nd class posthumously awarded a Navy Cross. Having a ship named after him during WWII is not a "significant award or honor") and
WP:GNG. No SIGCOV in multiple RS so not notable.

Merge to
USS Bangust. I concur he doesn't meet NBIO/NSOLDIER but there is some mergable content here (but unfortunately not footnoted). The ship can have a section about its non-notable namesake.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus|

Redirect and Merge to
