Congressman Cleaver to Speak at Historic Christening of U.S. Naval Combat Ship Named in Honor of Kansas City

On Saturday, September 22, 2018, in Mobile, Alabama the United States Navy will christen the USS Kansas City in a special ceremony.

As an example, pictured above is Kansas City’s sister ship, the USS Independence.
