Destroyer in fatal accident dedicated to Sen. Mccain

The head of the U.S. Navy on Thursday dedicated one of two destroyers involved in fatal accidents in the Pacific last year to Sen. John Mccain.

Navy Secretary Richard Spencer, in a ceremony aboard the USS John S. Mccain at a naval base in Japan, added Mccain’s name to a warship that had already been named for the Arizona senator’s father and grandfather. All three generations of Mccains have the same name.
