Brunner Renner
US Navy USS Boise

(d.12th Oct 1942)
My great uncle was Brunner Renner. He served on the USS Boise in 1942. I dont know much about what happened to him. But this is what I know. He died in Oct.1942 in the Battle of Cape Esperance. From what I have already found out. Someone told my aunt that he saved 71 crew members the day he died. By yelling out "Torpedoes on starboard." I would really like to find out more about him. If anyone has any info. Please contact me. Thank you all and May God Bless all the people who served and their families.
