Should the Navy name a cargo ship after farm labor leader Cesar Chavez?

    Caesar Chavez is reported to have said that the worst two years of his life were spent in the United States Navy. Wouldn't you think that the supposedly most tech-savvy administration in our history would have discovered that before making such a stupid decision? This is just another example of political pandering by an administration which, just like the last several, has far too few veterans in it.

    Women were just starting to go to sea when I retired in 1981. I'm not superstitious, but I certainly would not want to serve aboard a ship named after someone who hated the Navy, USS (UNITED STATED SHIP or USNS (UNITED STATES NAVAL SHIP).
