Any idea which ships? #3 resembles USS Arizona/ Pennsylvania.

Definitely tricky from this distance. The first three ships all appear to be Standard-type battleships (no amidships turrets) so ruling out WY/AR/NY/TX.

The first two have had inter-war modernizations complete (the cage masts have been replaced with heavy tripod masts) while the third ship still has her cage masts. This makes #3 one of the 'Big 5' - the TN or CO classes. Now it's tough to tell but to me, the main battery looks like it has two guns per turret which makes #3 one of the Colorado-class ships. Which one specifically I don't know, all three of them were based in the Pacific during the inter-war period.

If you end up looking up records, the fleet at the time was actually called 'Battle Force'. It was not renamed 'Pacific Fleet' until early 1941.

Cool! Bridge almost complete. White achievement
