The USS Patroclus was named after Achillies beloved slain in what war by Hector?
Achilles In Greek mythology, Achilles ( , ; ] ) was a Greek hero of the Trojan War and the central character and greatest warrior of Homer's "Iliad". His mother was the immortal nereid Thetis, and his father, the mortal Peleus, was the king of the Myrmidons.
Laocoön Laocoön ( ; Ancient Greek: Λαοκόων , ] ), the son of Acoetes, is a figure in Greek and Roman mythology and the Epic Cycle. He was a Trojan priest who was attacked, with his two sons, by giant serpents sent by the gods. Though not mentioned by Homer, the story of Laocoön had been the subject of a tragedy, now lost, by Sophocles and was mentioned by other Greek writers, though the events around the attack by the serpents vary considerably. The most famous account of these is now in Virgil's "Aeneid" where Laocoön was a priest of Poseidon (or Neptune for the Romans), who was killed with both his sons after attempting to expose the ruse of the Trojan Horse by striking it with a spear.
