Re: Eugene Anthony Valencia promotion dates.
I should state that the citation for his Navy Cross (2 July 1945) calls him Lieutenant Commander [then Lieutenant] Eugene Anthony Valencia (NSN: 0-113030), United States Naval Reserve. I assume this was his temporary rank at the time? If so it would pinpoint his temporary promotion to around June 1945. In a newpaper article of August 1945, which shows him sporting a full set of whiskers he is still referred to as Lieutenant.
