Isaac Campbell Kidd (March 26, 1884 – December 7, 1941) was an American Rear Admiral in the United States Navy. Kidd was killed on the bridge of USS Arizona during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. He was the father of Admiral Isaac C. Kidd, Jr.
He was a posthumous recipient of his nation's highest military honor—the Medal of Honor. The highest ranking casualty at Pearl Harbor, he became the first U.S. Navy flag officer killed in action in World War II as well as the first killed in action against any foreign enemy. A Fletcher-class destroyer, Kidd , was commissioned in his honor on April 23, 1943. The second ship named after him, Kidd , lead ship of four Kidd-class destroyers, was commissioned on March 27, 1981.
An Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer, Kidd , was the third ship named after him and was commissioned on June 9, 2007.
