A remarkable honor for an American hero and equally remarkable @uofscalumni.
More on Medal of Honor recipient Kyle Carpenter: sc.edu/uofsc/posts/2025/01/kโฆ
It gives me great pleasure to award @GDBIW the contract to produce the next Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, USS Kyle Carpenter (DDG-148).
In 2010, Cpl. Carpenter went above and beyond the call of duty to shield a fellow Marine from a grenade blast in Afghanistan. May this warship represent his valor, resilience and devotion to our Nation.

Thank you to USC SVA, ROTC, and the Veterans Alumni Council for the powerful tribute on Davis Field. Flags in the shape of the Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and Pennsylvania were built to honor the sacrifices made and the lives changed that day.
