New USS Arizona?

I just received the form letter and it has ship 14 div 087 but says USS Arizona on it.  That ship was sunk at Pearl Harbor so I assume they have built a new USS Arizona?  Anyone know this for sure or did my son write the incorrect ship name?

    The ship names are just what they give to the various divisions at boot camp.  They represent various Navy ships throughout history.  Go ahead and send your sons letter to the address he gave you - and even if you don't put the actual ship name on there, it will get there.

    Here's the link to confirm the mailing address.  Note that they don't even list a ship name.

    The buildings the recruit divisions are housed in are named for ships. There is an address, bldg number, ship number and ship name for all the buildings. The only thing you need to include when addressing your recruits is Ship # and Division #. Even the buildings on the TSC side have ship names attached to them.
