US Navy vessels named after women – USS Hopper

Was thinking about this in reference to yesterday's post of the Grace Hopper nanosecond video, couldn't think of another US Naval vessel named for a woman, and found this -- which is quite a trip down memory lane for an old Navy guy.

Only four modern combatant craft built -- USS Higbee from WWII (and now a newly planned DDG with the same name) named for a Navy nurse who was awarded the Navy Cross, USS Roosevelt (Eleanor Roosevelt is listed as one of the people it was named after), USS Gabrielle Giffords and USS Hopper from 1996, currently in service.

So technically the Navy only has had two modern combatant craft named after female Sailors, one not yet in service, and one of them named for Commodore Hopper.
