Might the US Navy change the name of the future carrier Doris Miller?
Short answerThat seems unlikely because Miller's courage and service at Pearl Harbor make him an appropriate naval exemplar.
NotesDoris Miller is presented as an unlikely candidate for having his ship name removed. His actions aboard USS West Virginia during the attack on Pearl Harbor included helping wounded sailors and manning an anti-aircraft gun. Miller later died in 1943 while still serving in the US Navy. The naming case rests on wartime courage and service.
