Erotic Blog: Ariel Rebel ran through my mind. The first is that you and he need a little information:
Every Navy ship has a hull number. Until 9/11 they were painted in large white numbers on the bow except on carriers and subs. They are still there after 9/11 but they are not white, are smaller, and because of their color are difficult to see. On the back-end (Stern) is the name of the vessel.
Next; In official correspondence the hull number is preceded by a series of letters to identify the class of vessel. Carriers are CV_, Subs are SS_, and Destroyers were DD. Except that my tin can was an EDD because we were an experimental Destroyer in that we would go into the yards, get new equipment installed, and then we would get underway to test it to see if the Navy wanted it or not.
