Doris “Doris” Miller , was awarded the Navy Cross for his actions at Pearl Harbor .
Looks like the Navy is going to name an aircraft carrier , CVN-81 , after him ?
I wish the Navy hadn’t gone down the naming carriers after people rabbit hole. Nimitz and Eisenhower I can see, sort of, but not Ford, Bush or Miller .
I do like classic names, Enterprise, Constellation, America . Battles such as Midway , Coral Sea or Bunker Hill are ok. Hornet or Wasp ? Honey Badger !

Played by Cuba Gooding Jr. in the movie “Pearl Harbor”. (He’s way better than Ben Affleck!)
We should always have a USS Lexington.
