We do have the USS Belleau Wood, which was enemy held at the time, or the USS Saipan, which was real enemy territory, part of the nation of Japan even before the war, as was the USS Iwo Jima.

Thanks for pointing those out. I had no idea we had ships named like that.

Good points!
I really like the name USS Tripoli for a ship. President Jefferson, the US Navy and Marines really kicked some terrorist butt.
