abstract
  • Charles Lawrence Ausburne (26 July 1889, New Orleans, Louisiana – 17 October 1917) enlisted in the United States Navy 25 February 1908. As an Electrician First Class, Ausburne manned the emergency wireless station in the Army transport , and following the ship's fatal torpedoing 17 October 1917 by U-105, stood to his duty until the ship sank beneath him. His gallantry was recognized in the posthumous award of the Navy Cross. Two ships of the U.S. Navy have been named in his honor. Since other family members spelled their name as Ausburn, the first ship was named USS Charles Ausburn (DD-294). It was later found that he himself spelled his surname as Ausburne, and the second ship was named USS Charles Ausburne (DD-570).
