Title
USS Arizona, Arrival of Sponsor, Navy Yard, New York, June 19, 1915.
Description
Arrival of the sponsor (the person performing the christening) at the launch of the USS Arizona in June, 1915. The sponsor was Esther Ross, the 17-year-old daughter of a pharmacist from Prescott, Arizona and chosen by Arizona's governor, and there were three "maids of honor". Two bottles were used, one of the traditional wine, and a second with water taken from the newly-opened Roosevelt Dam, which was a nod to Arizona being a dry state at the time.[1][2]
