All I can find it that the Destroyer Escort USS Steele was sponsored by Mrs. John Steele. The USS Steele was in fact named for Private John M. Steele, who was a member of the Marine detachment aboard the USS Lexington and was killed during the Battle of the Coral Sea on 8 May 1942. M. Evans, California
