When Iranian forces threatened international shipping in the Persian Gulf during the Iran-Iraq War, the United States launched Operation Earnest Will — the largest naval convoy escort operation since World War II. USS Constellation (CV-64) was part of this effort, providing air cover and deterrence as Kuwaiti oil tankers sailed under the American flag through contested waters. Running from 1987 to 1988, 'Connie's' crew knew that the wrong move by Iranian forces could trigger a wider war. Constellation's presence helped keep the peace — and kept the sea lanes open. This sweatshirt honors the men who held the line in the Gulf.
