The Navy got it correct with "The U.S. Navy will name its newest Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer for World War II hero Charles Jackson French, who saved 15 of his fellow sailors from certain death by exposure or execution."
At least Seaman French did something of honor.
The Navy has no plans to ever honor Donald Trump's stinking legacy!
The Navy doesn’t name ships. That honor falls to SecNav, under the direction of his/her sitting President. SecNav and POTUS are both civilians.
This comment is by the seeder so Off Topic flag is dismissed. charger

I thought it we weren't going to name anything for people who's ancestors were slaves holders.
Well, like his ancestors, he holds a "D" after his name....so it's OK.
No, only acual slaveholders and rebel traitors...
Appropriate that they would name an aircraft carrier after a president that bomb more countries than his predecessors.
Which video game is this from?
