Patrick was a selfless hero , I hope the military ship will be named after him as I'm sure he has done much to warrant this honour

Would also be an honour for all the brave Irish men who bore arms for the US, not just this brave marine.

For all of the Irish who fought and died, and continue to serve in the US military, this would be a fine tribute indeed.
