B. Julius Caesar
C. Leonidas II

Here comes today’s question:
During the Battle of Hampton Roads in the US Civil War, the Confederate CSS Virginia was engaged by the USS Monitor, which was the first federal ironclad ship. Until Monitor’s arrival, Virginia had been wreaking havoc on the mostly wooden ship blockade of Hampton Roads. The battle ended in a stalemate, though the crew of the Virginia believes Monitor could have sunk them had she hit them at the waterline.
Anyway, what was the name of the Monitor’s acting master who was knocked unconscious during the fight?
A. Louis Stodder
B. John Worden
C. Samuel Greene
D. Stephen Mallory
