For over three decades, USS Antietam (CG-54) has embodied the best of American naval power. Commissioned on June 6, 1987 — the 43rd anniversary of D-Day — and named for the battle that marked the Civil War's bloodiest single day, this Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser has sailed from the Cold War into the 21st century with distinction. Homeported in Yokosuka, Japan as part of the Navy's forward-deployed force, Antietam's Aegis Combat System makes her a cornerstone of both strike warfare and ballistic missile defense across the Indo-Pacific. From Desert Shield to Operation Iraqi Freedom to North Korean deterrence, Antietam has answered every call. Put her crest on display — on your laptop, your water bottle, your car — and wear the pride.
