The Navy may give a ship's sponsor a small keepsake, like its name plate, at no cost. It can also give back to states or groups any item, including silverware, that they originally donated to a ship.

Following regulations the Secretary of the Navy sets, and at no cost to the government, the Secretary may lend or give: (1) to a ship's sponsor, the name plate or another small item of little value or sentimental value from that ship; and (2) to any state, group, or organization named in section 8765, any article, material, or equipment — including silver service — that it originally gave to the ship.
