“USS Doris Miller”? Good grief. Can a real man serve on a ship named “Doris”? Next it’ll be USS Bambi.

Doris Miller was a man, and a Navy Cross recipient for his actions at Pearl Harbor. He is a hero worth emulating.

However, he should have a a Destroyer named after him, not a Carrier.

Doris is a dude. Black guy, first to be awarded the Navy across and a nominee for the MOH.
