COMMISSIONING DATE SET FOR NEW DESTROYER
A U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyer will be commissioned November 13 in Port Everglades. The ceremony will mark the entry into service of the USS Jason Dunham, the Navy's "most advanced warship," named after a Marine Corps corporal who died in Iraq.
Dunham, 22, was attacked by an insurgent in Iraq on April 14, 2004, and while the two wrestled, the assailant released a grenade. Dunham jumped on it, covering it with his body and helmet. He died, but he was credited with saving the lives of at least two fellow Marines. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.
It's been five years since the last such ceremony; this event will be the fifth in the port's history. It follows the commissioning of the USS Bainbridge in 2005, the USS Higgins in 1999, the USS Cole in 1996 and the USS Layette Gulf in 1987.
The USS Jason Dunham, a 510-foot-long Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer, will be stationed in Norfolk, VA.
