USS KIDD DD661 flew the Jolly Roger as her battle flag. Dad has a framed photograph of the KIDD shelling North Korean shore batteries and the skull and crossbones is clearly visible. He said they flew their unique battle flag throughout the Korean War and also in action against the Chinese communist in the Formosa and Taiwan Straits Crisis. I believe later versions of the KIDD, DDG993 and DDG100 may have also flown the Jolly Roger.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
