Book excerpt: For most of the 19th century, U. S. law included language explicitly assigning the Secretary of the Navy the task of naming new Navy ships.1 The reference to the Secretary of the Navy disappeared from the U. S. Code in 1925.2 The code today (10 USC §7292) is silent on the issue of who has the authority to name new Navy ships,3 but the Secretary of the Navy arguably retains implicit authority, give [...] However, if the names of all the States are in use, a battleship may be named for a city, place, or person." It specifically authorizes the Secretary of the Navy to "change the name of any vessel bought for the Navy," §7292(c), but does not explicitly assign responsibility for ensuring that no two vessels have the same name, §7292(a), or for naming battleships, §7292(b). [...] In its final form, after consideration at the various levels of command, the Chief of Naval Operations signs the memorandum recommending names for the current year's building program and sends it to the Secretary of the Navy. [...] An exception occurred on April 23, 2010, when the Secretary of the Navy announced that LPD-26, the 10th ship in the class, would be named for the late Representative John P. Murtha.10 The Secretary's decision to name the ship for 8 CVN-68 was named for Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz, a five-star admiral who commanded U. S. and allied forces in the Pacific in World War II. [...] The Navy announced on October 9, 2009, that the 13th ship in the class would be named for the civil rights activist Medgar Evers.12 • Joint High Speed Vessels (JHSVs), which are being procured for both the Navy and Army, are being named for American traits and values.13 On July 16, 2009, the Secretary of the Navy and the Secretary of the Army announced that the first three JHSVs had been named For.
