Introduced

Summary

This bill would urge the Secretary of the Navy to name a U.S. Navy ship after the Battle of Cowpens. It memorializes the January 17, 1781 battle near Chesnee, South Carolina as a turning point in the Southern Campaign, records that two previous ships carried the Cowpens name and the "Mighty Moo" nickname, and notes that the most recent Cowpens ship was decommissioned in 2024 so no active ship now bears the name.
