Attributed WWII US Navy ACE Pilot's Visor Hat

A nice World War II era U.S. Navy visor cap with a old label note inside hand written to Lieutenant Wallace Johnson navy World War II ace, fighter pilot, 53 combat missions. This came out of a very old collection from a gentleman who collected mostly directly from the veterans. Can I confirm the accuracy of this but I wouldn't doubt if this is the case. Regardless, nice visor cap worthy of more research. AWARDED FOR ACTIONS - Distinguished Flying Cross DURING World War II Service: Navy Rank: Lieutenant Junior Grade Battalion: Fighting Squadron 15 (VF-15) Division: U.S.S. Essex (CV-9) GENERAL ORDERS: Bureau of Naval Personnel Information Bulletin No. 366 (August 1947) CITATION: (Citation Needed) - SYNOPSIS: Lieutenant, Junior Grade Wallace R. Johnson, United States Navy, was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for extraordinary achievement while participating in aerial flight as a Fighter Pilot in Fighting Squadron FIFTEEN (VF-15), embarked in U.S.S. ESSEX (CV-9), over the Central Philippine Islands, on 12 September 1944.
