CSS Georgia was scuttled, not sunk in battle. None of her crew were aboard when she sank. It should be raised and preserved.

The U.S.S. Arizona is a war grave, as such, it can never be raised from the bottom.

Just a minor difference between the two ships.

The Hunley was a war grave too, I also remember when they said they would never loot the Titanic.
