And in answer to another poster's question, I believe that the USS (The)
Sullivans is still a commissioned ship.

From: http://www.buffalonavalpark.org/sullivan.htm
USS THE SULLIVANS ( DD-537 )
Fletcher Class Destroyer
Launched April 4, 1943 at Bethlehem Steel Corporation, San Francisco CA.
Commissioned September 30, 1943
Decommissioned 1965

Hmm, you learn something new every day. I didn't realize there was a
previous ship bearing that name.
