US Navy Considers Renaming Future USS Doris Miller Aircraft Carrier
The US Navy is reportedly considering renaming the future aircraft carrier USS Doris Miller, initially named to honor Doris Miller, the first Black sailor awarded the Navy Cross for his actions during the Pearl Harbor attack. Sources indicate discussions about renaming the ship after former President Donald Trump, while plans may involve naming another warship after Miller and recommending him posthumously for the Medal of Honor. The Navy and Miller's family have not confirmed these changes, and the Department of Defense has no announcements yet.
