USS Enterprise (CVAN-65) 1969 Long Sleeve Cruise Shirt

January 14, 1969 is a date forever seared into Enterprise's history. While conducting flight operations off Pearl Harbor, an accidental rocket ignition on the flight deck triggered a catastrophic chain of explosions and fires. Twenty-seven men gave their lives; 314 were wounded. The crew fought the fires with legendary heroism, saving the ship. Enterprise was repaired and returned to the Western Pacific to complete her Vietnam deployment — proof that nothing could keep The Big E from her mission. Every Sailor who served on this cruise carries both the weight of those losses and the pride of a crew that refused to quit.
