Still more WW2 trivia --

The Battle of Midway, June 1942, was the turning point of the Pacific war. Of the five aircraft carriers sunk at Midway, one's captain was a radio ham. Which ship did he command? What was his name? What was his callsign?

I know the answers to all of these, except callsign. Being a student of the Pacific War, I've been trying to find out that callsign for decades. Anyone know? Anyone know the other answers?
