PEARL HARBOR (Jan. 20, 2020) Emrys Bledsoe, bottom, great-great-grandnephew of World War II hero Doris “Dorie” Miller, attempts to cut a cake next to Acting Secretary of the Navy Thomas B. Modly, third from left, Mrs. Robyn Modly, left, Rep. Eddie Bernice-Johnson, right, and other Miller relatives at a Martin Luther King Day celebration event on Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam. The ceremony ended after the unveiling of the new Ford-class aircraft carrier USS Doris Miller (CVN 81). This will be the second ship named in honor of Miller, and the first aircraft carrier ever named for an African American and an enlisted Sailor.
