Reasons for Signing:

As a military Retiree I believe more enlisted Heroes should be recognized.

Vladimir Zagorodnuk

It’s a right thing to do

Matthew Simkovsky

(1) We should recognize the valor and patriotism of those that have gone before us for generations to come so history is not forgotten; (2) Inspire those individuals that serve on a submarine named after a Medal of Honor submariner recipient so they have an example to follow, …

I can only aspire to be as badass as the diesel boat sailors in WWII, and I wish the boat on which I served wasn’t named after the lamest state in the union. Bring back awesome sub names.

As the grandson of an enlisted WW2 submariner, I think this should happen immediately!!!!

Glenn Cleveland

I'm a retired submariner and this would be the ultimate memorial, and a story to tell for generations.

MICHAEL BRETTLER

It's about time.

Paul Desautels

He is a Medal of Honor winner who risked his life to save others.

By "placing his own safety aside" Torpedoman Second Class Breault saved the lives of his fellow seamen. Torpedoman Second Class Breault's submarine was sunk in a collision in the Panama Canal. Though he could have escaped, Breault chose to assist a shipmate and remained inside the sunken submarine until both were rescued more than a day later. For his action he was awarded the highest honor any military service member can attain. I can think of no better honor than to name a US Submarine in his name. Pride runs deep!

The first submariner and the only enlisted submariner to be awarded the MoH. Seems a better choice than some names that have graced our ships historically.

Guy Hawkins
