      Ummmm, he fired a .50 caliber machine gun during an attack. By that standard EVERYONE at Pearl Harbor should have gotten Navy Crosses. The TRUTH is Doris Miller got his medal for ONE reason, the color of his skin. After the attack there was massive pressure from the black press to give a black man a medal so they could have a hero at Pearl Harbor too. Miller didn't get awarded his medal for nearly 6 months after the attack as the Navy bowed to pressure from the black press and members of congress to award a medal to a black man. Since then the tales of what he did at Pearl Harbor have been WILDLY exaggerated to justify it. I have seen him credited with as many as three aircraft shot down, which ANYONE who knows ANYTHING about a .50 caliber machine gun knows that is totally BS. Miller himself said he had no idea if he shot any enemy aircraft.

    They say that the name was an appeasement tactic.
    But technically, look at the history of the man himself, he was merely a Cook aboard the Battleship West Virginia during the Pearl Harbor attack, he got the gravely wounded captain to a safer position and helped load the AA guns because that’s what African American sailors could do.
    But afterwards, he manned an AA Gun despite not being trained to man it and opened fire on the attacking Japanese planes. Miller was fueled with the desire to protect his fellow sailors and kept firing until the gun ran out of ammunition.
    He assisted in helping the surviving crew escape the sinking battleship and for his efforts - he was awarded the Navy Cross and some would hail him as the Hero of Pearl Harbor.
    Now for his name on a carrier was where Doris Miller’s journey ended. He was aboard the escort carrier, USS Liscome Bay during the raids on Makin Atoll when the ship was hit by torpedoes from a Japanese Submarine. The explosion from the torpedoes hitting the fuel storage had split the carrier in two, I believe.
    Doris Miller was listed as Killed In Action.
    That’s the real reason why the fourth Ford-Class Carrier is called Doris Miller.
    But there’s still the third carrier under construction -
    The USS Enterprise!

      But when you think about Miller’s history, he earned the Navy Cross and was hailed as a hero - an example of sailors going above and beyond the call of duty.

      NOTHING he did that day would be considered heroic if he was a white sailor. Go look at the awards certificates of the other sailors who were awarded the Navy Cross and you will see Doris Miller does not belong in that club. The closest one I could find comparable to what Miller did was Aviation Ordinance man John William Finn. Finn was off duty at the time and at home. He heard the attack started and jumped in his car and drove down to his duty station NAS Kaneohe. Finding a movable tripod platform used for gunnery training, Finn attached a .50 caliber machine gun and pushed the platform into an open area, from which he had a clear view of the attacking aircraft. He fired on the Japanese planes for the next two hours, even after being seriously wounded, until the attack had ended. In total, he received 21 distinct wounds, including a bullet through his right foot and an injury to his left shoulder, which caused him to lose feeling in his left arm. Finn had no training in the use of .50 caliber machine guns either.
      "I got that gun and I started shooting at Japanese planes," Finn said in a 2009 interview. "I was out there shooting the Japanese planes and just every so often I was a target for some," he said, "In some cases, I could see their faces.
      Despite his wounds, Finn returned to the hangars later that day. After receiving medical treatment, he helped arm the surviving American planes. His actions earned him the first Medal of Honor to be awarded in World War II. Granted his medal was one notch higher than Millers but what Miller did does not compare in ANY way to what fin did.

    • @Bellthorian
      @Bellthorian 7 месяцев назад +3

      Take Commander William Page Burford Captain of the USS Monaghan. During the sortie of the U.S.S. MONAGHAN from Pearl Harbor, a Japanese submarine was sighted in the harbor. Despite the severe enemy bombing and strafing at the time, Lieutenant Commander Burford, through skillful handling of his ship at high speed in the shoal water and at a bend in the channel, attacked and destroyed the submarine by ramming and with depth charges; and completed the sortie from the harbor in an outstanding manner. So this guy is one of the few Captains to get his ship underway during an attack, sank an enemy submarine in the harbor while being bombed and strafed and successfully made it out of the harbor and yet he was awarded the same medal as a guy who fired a .50 caliber machine gun. One of these things is not like the other!!! Oh yeah, how many ships has he had named after him? ZERO!!!!!!!

      Carriers should be named for important events and concepts, such as Coral Sea, Midway, Yorktown, Independence, and of course, the proudest name in the history of the US Navy, ENTERPRISE.

    I vote we name an aircraft carrier after another unsung hero of Dec. 7. 1941. USN Gunner Frank DuBosque , who manned the #3 5 inch gun turret of the USS St. Louis (CL-49) , sank the IJN type 6 midget submarine that had already fired a torpedo at the "Lucky Lou" and sank that sucker. The torpedo exploded harmlessly on a shoal and gave away the position of the midget type 6 IJN sub. It was later dredged up and pulled from inside the harbor with a 5' hole through ( the shell never detonated as the Gunners Mate failed to arm the shells detonator but down went the sub anyway ) it and Congressman Robert Andrews ( D-NJ) awarded him a medal many decades after the war. Frank was told that if asked, he shot a pilot whale as the USN needed to deny the success of those mini subs in gaining access to Pearl Harbor. The destroyer USS Monaghan (DD-354) also sank a submarine in Pearl Harbor that day via ramming and depth charges as well. Nothing about those mini sub sinkings is any Hollywood war movies either but the facts are documented for any and all REAL historians to confirm.

    If we name other ships already after.certain war heroes who pulled off some of our most spectacular missions undertaken that gave the ultimate sacrifice of their lives should be on all other ships who deserve this distinction and place of honor.
    God Bless America and all these souls giving this honor to these ships that often last 25 to 30 years at least and then rename another ship after yet another hero.

This would be right and just to acknowledge the indigenous peoples’ independent spirit and cultural heritage that is still practiced by all tribes in the United States. Our government has never honored a treaty with any of the tribes during colonization to the present day and if our government would do this it would help heal the years of mistrust and broken promises. There are so many great leaders from all the tribes that could be chosen for this honor if it were to happen. For the family and relatives of Doris Miller this is a great and noble honor to have the newest generation of the aircraft carrier named after him.

      @@toddsmith6766 and you know how many ass kickers have served in the USN? They tend to be honored by naming a destroyer after them. carriers tend to be named after historical ships, battles or important people such as presidents or admirals.

      It's funny you have a problem with this. The reason is simple, during a time where he was completely disrespected because of his race. He could have just run off and said screw you white people. But he didn't. He did what he did for his country. You wouldn't know anything about that because you would have been treated fairly. Welcomed to the Navy as an equal. It blows my mind how ignorance towards these issues you can be. But then I remember, it's people like you are the reasons why we have these issues in the first place. Then I laugh because it's funny that I expected posts like this. So predictable, the racist is such an easy mark to figure out. Thanks for making my day. Carry on...

      @@bjt81366 What udder and complete BS!! You know how many brave men fought in the USN during the war and many did greater things then him. Naming destroyers after such persons is the norm and with the amount of destroyers the fleet has, it makes more sense. The ONLY reason for this carrier being named after him is because he is politics. Miller deserves a ship named after him, a destroyer, as with the USS Miller (FF-1091). I am not diminishing his bravery or deeds, it is just that many are inflating them by naming a carrier after him. If you want to name a carrier after a black person, better to pick Obama or Powell, both men deserve the honor more and it would be more fitting.

    I wonder if the Naval Engineers / Ship building contractors know the acronym " K.I.S.S. = Keep it Simple Stupid " or
    " If'n it Ain't Broke = Don't Fix it...! "
    Inrelations to switching from Steam Driven Catapults to the New Electro Magnetic Catapult system...?!?
    I talked that over with a Retired Naval Airedale Warrant Officer who had served on various " Bird Farms " / Aircraft Carriers ; including the U.S.S. John B. Stennis .
    What happens if an " EMP " hits ship...!?? No Flight Ops...!

    Aircraft Carriers should be named after PRESIDENTS or ships of the REVOLUTION or WW2 or someone of like POWELL. Having
    another destoyer to be named after him would have been just fine.

    The US Navy really should have called it the USS Dorie Miller. Dorie was his nickname and would have dealt with the clear mistake his parents made in naming him a nearly universal female name. Just like he went through life as a butt of jokes, the ship will as well. It may also make it more difficult to name future ships after women. Doesn't anyone have a brain in their head anymore?
