Not to rain on Mr Miller’s heroics, which speak for itself but carriers are usually named after heroic battles (USS Lexington, USS Yorktown, USS Midway, USS Tarawa) Former warships(USS Enterprise) or presidents.(USS John F. Kennedy, USS Gerald R. Ford, USS Ronald Reagan)

Tradition should be upheld so if this hero have a ship named after him, how about a destroyer?

I will say, at least it wasn’t named after a homo or trans sexual.

I see plenty of carrier names that aren’t any of those;
