 Welcome to All Hands Update, I'm Petty Officer Jonathan Pancall. Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus announced the future guided missile destroyer DDG-119 will be named after the first Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy, Delbert D. Black. The ceremony was held at the Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C. March 13th and attended by several guests, including Mick Pond Black's widow, Mrs. Ima Black. I was humbled by two. I was thinking of the thousands and thousands of people, the heroes in our world that are worthy to have a ship name for them and so that kind of brought me down a notch or two and I'm unbelievably happy today. Black served 30 years, his career cresting with his selection as Mick Pond on January 13th, 1967. USS Delbert D. Black will be built at Ingalls Shipbuilding in Pascagoula, Mississippi.
