SEC. 1024. NOTICE TO CONGRESS FOR THE REVIEW OF PRO-
POSALS TO NAME NAVAL VESSELS. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following findings: 
(1) The Navy traces its ancestry to October 13, 
1775, when an Act of the Continental Congress au-
thorized the first vessel of a navy for the United Colo-
nies. Vessels of the Continental Navy were named for 
early patriots and military heroes, Federal institu-
tions, colonial cities, and positive character traits 
representative of naval and military virtues. 
(2) An Act of Congress on March 3, 1819, made 
the Secretary of the Navy responsible for assigning 
names to vessels of the Navy. Traditional sources for 
vessel names customarily encompassed such categories 
as geographic locations in the United States; historic 
sites, battles, and ships; naval and military heroes 
and leaders; and noted individuals who made distin-
guished contributions to United States national secu-
rity. 
(3) These customs and traditions provide appro-
priate and necessary standards for the naming of ves-
sels of the Navy.
