Navy reportedly weighs renaming aircraft carrier for Trump
The U.S. Navy is reportedly evaluating whether to rename one of its future aircraft carriers, potentially removing the name of Doris Miller, a historically significant figure who served heroically during the Pearl Harbor attack. The proposed change would replace an honour tied to an established military historical legacy with an alternative designation.
President Donald Trump's name has been mentioned as a potential candidate for the redesignation, according to reporting on the Navy's review process. The proposal remains in an exploratory phase without final determination, and the rationale for reconsidering the ship's current naming has not been detailed.
