I have had the honor and privilege of preparing, planning, and supporting the Cowpens Mighty Moo ships for over 34 years. Our community would most certainly proudly proclaim that the historic Battle of Cowpens did indeed provide a turning point in our country’s founding history. Please join us in securing an unprecedented 3rd USN ship named for the battle fought & won so diligently in 1781, as well as service from both USS COWPENS CVL-25 & CG-63.
Thank you & God Bless America!

The name COWPENS, a critical revolutionary war battle, a national park, a City, and the name of 2 previous US NAVY Combatants, should forever remain a part of the NAVY. Not to mention the amount of involvement the city of COWPENS has maintained with both USS COWPENS ships to include correspondence, a museum and an annual parade. A rich history that should be continued in the naming of another US NAVY Combatant as soon as possible!!

I moved to Cowpens thirty years ago the day of that year’s Mighty Moo Festival and the town just showed love to us along with the Vets (and families) visiting! It was amazing the interaction and pride between the Vets and community! My family has/had numerous veterans but never have I seen the community pride and love shown for our veterans as here every year and every time any vet comes through the area! Support our military and name a third ship USS Cowpens for continuing the mission!

As a Plankowner of the USS Cowpens CG-63 it would be an honor to have another ship named after a major battle that helped define our nation.

A good friend of mine served on the second Cowpens (CG-63). I have attended the Mighty Moo Festival twice. The town’s embrace of those connected to either ship is very impressive

My father served on CVL 25 during WW 2 M division He was proud of his service and saw a lot of sacrifices. Keeping the name alive honors him and his fellow crew members.

Naming another Navy ship USS Cowpens would carry forward a proud connection between our town and the United States Navy that has lasted for generations. It would honor the sailors who served aboard CVL 25 and CG 63 while giving a new generation of sailors the opportunity to become part of that history. The Cowpens name belongs at sea again.

The LEGACY of BOTH Previous Ships and Crews lives on! USS Cowpens, and it's ties to the Great State of South Carolina, the Cowpens Battleground, and the town of Cowpens are bound by history, patriotism, and community. The Town of Cowpens' annual "Mighty Moo Festival" draws THOUSANDS of guests from across the USA, demonstrating their commitment to continuing the COWPENS Tradition. The next Festival, in June 2027, will mark 50 years of CELEBRATION.
