Fort Hamilton’s main street was re-memorialized and renamed after a Brooklyn native, Vietnam War veteran, and Medal of Honor recipient 1st Lt. John E. Warren, Jr. The names of military assets should appropriately reflect the courage, values and sacrifices of our diverse military men and women, and 1st Lt. John Warren, Jr. is a great example of all that.
