Named for a Medal of Honor recipient, a Senator, and a man who served his country in every way possible. USS Daniel Inouye carries that legacy into the Pacific — and this patch carries it on your gear.
USS Daniel Inouye (DDG-118) is an Arleigh Burke-class Flight IIA guided missile destroyer, commissioned on December 8, 2021, at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam.

Built by Bath Iron Works, DDG-118 completed her first nine-month deployment in 2024 with the Theodore Roosevelt strike group, serving as air and missile defense commander across the Western Pacific and Red Sea.
