  1. Speaking of Cdr. Ernest Evans.... The secretary of the Navy announced last week the new DDG-141 will be named for him. He was of course posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor; for actions as captain of the USS Johnson during the Battle of Samar.

  2.  @johngregory4801  it's rather perplexing there has only been one ship in 80 years named for him prior. There have been some other ships named Evans. But those were named for other men.
