Admiral Frank Jack Fletcher was the US Navy's commander at the pivotal Battles of the Coral Sea in May 1942 and Midway in June 1942. He also commanded in the Battle of the Eastern Solomons in August 1942. These were three of the four great carrier battles of 1942, and there was not another until 1944. By that time Fletcher was commander in the North Pacific.
Fletcher's papers were lost in combat, and he refused to reconstruct them from the naval archives. Fletcher also declined to be interviewed by the influential official Navy historian, Samuel Elliott Morrison. So Morrison got his nose out of joint and ignored Fletcher's contributions in his published works, and later historians have picked up on this and followed Morrison's lead.
Fletcher earned a Medal of Honor as a young officer at Vera Cruz, Mexico in 1914.
