License Number: 109192 Navy Honors Late African- American Hero (AP) – The U.S. Navy in a Martin Luther King Day ceremo- ny last month named an aircraft carrier after World War II hero Mess Attendant 2nd Class Doris Miller, making him the first Afri- can-American to have an aircraft carrier named in his or her honor. Miller was the first African American to receive the Navy Cross for valor. He was recog- nized in 1942 for manning a ma- chine gun on the USS West Vir- ginia and returning fire against Japanese planes during the Dec. 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. The USS Miller, a destroyer es- cort, was previously named in his honor. “I think that Doris Miller is an American hero simply because of what he represents as a young man going beyond the call of what’s expected,” said Doreen Raven- scroft, a team leader for the Doris Miller Memorial. Because the military was seg- regated at the time, an African American was not allowed to man a gun in the Navy in 1941, Raven- scroft said. “Without him really know- ing, he actually was a part of the Civil Rights movement because he changed the thinking in the Navy,” she said. Miller, then 22, was collecting laundry when the attack alarm sounded. His normal battle station in an antiaircraft battery maga- zine was destroyed by a torpe- do. He went on deck and carried wounded sailors to safety before receiving orders to aid the mortal- ly wounded captain on the bridge. “He subsequently manned a 50-cal. Browning anti-aircraft ma- chine gun until he ran out of ammu- nition and was ordered to abandon ship,” the Navy said, noting Miller was not trained to operate the gun. Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, the commander in chief of the Pacific Fleet, presented the Navy Cross to Miller in Pearl Harbor in May 1942. Miller died while serving on a ship that was torpedoed by a Jap- anese submarine in November 1943.
