  The Navy vessels will be the first to bear the names of former presidents William J. Clinton and George W. Bush.

The U.S. Navy has honored former Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton by naming two new aircraft carriers after them. The USS George H.W. Bush (CVN-77) was commissioned in 2009, marking the last of the Nimitz-class carriers, while the USS Bill Clinton (CVN-80) is currently under construction and will be part of the new Gerald R. Ford-class. This tradition of naming carriers after former presidents reflects their significant contributions to the nation, with George H.W. Bush known for his naval service during World War II and his presidency, and Bill Clinton for his domestic and international policies. The naming ceremony for the USS Bill Clinton took place recently, highlighting his legacy and the Navy's respect for his leadership.
