No, should be named Ulysses S. Grant or William T. Sherman, they won by the complete and utter destruction of their enemies. That is the quality you need in ships. Gentlemanly but surrendered is not a value I would support.
To: MagUSNRET
They can’t have ‘Boaty McBoatface’. The British already used that one. &^)

It may depend on the sex of the skipper. %^0

New motto:
semper sensitivo.
Cause every enemy will quiver before a Navy that knows how to fight valiantly against insensitivity.

Any ships named after Halsey? “Before we’re through with them, the Japanese language will be spoken only in hell.”
Seems pretty insensitive to me.

Well, there’s the “Harvey Milk”.

All white people are “racist, insensitive persons” according to the leftists. Maybe they should stop naming ships after people entirely. The USS Pusillanimous sounds about right for this day and age.

The purge of the military continues under the lie of “tolerance”.
We won’t win another war. Not that we’ve won any lately...or even tried.
