Employer street address on w2 is missing

I am DOD civilian, not in the military if that makes a difference in anyone's answer.  My W2 shows my employer address as:  Line 1: "US Government", Line 2:  "Department of Defense", Line 3: "(name of military base), State,  Zip Code"  There is absolutely no street address listed. Is it OK to enter the employer info into my 1040 exactly as it shows on the W2, with no street address? or will that be flagged/rejected by IRS?  If I use the employer tax id # to google an address, it comes up with a street address at the same military base, but it belongs to  a different agency than the one I work for.

Yes, it is perfectly acceptable to list the address as it is listed on the W2. A street address is not required to be listed on a W2.
