The American Destroyer USS Chung-Hoon?
Well, that is a new one. I wonder what “Chung-Hoon” means.
Kiss My A$$ in Cantonese, or Mandarin?
Gordon Paiʻea Chung-Hoon (July 25, 1910 – July 24, 1979) was an admiral in the United States Navy, who served during World War II and was the first Asian American flag officer. He received the Navy Cross and Silver Star for conspicuous gallantry and extraordinary heroism as commanding officer of USS Sigsbee from May 1944 to October 1945.

Doesn’t sound very “land of the free home of the brave” to me.
