USS Kidd (DDG-100) completed her 2009 maiden deployment, beginning the operational legacy of the Navy's newest ship to carry the name of Admiral Isaac C. Kidd — the first American admiral killed in World War II, who perished aboard USS Arizona during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. As an Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer, DDG-100 is a formidable fleet combatant equipped with the AEGIS weapons system. Her maiden deployment marked the start of a distinguished service record that honors one of the Navy's great heroes. This sweatshirt commemorates that historic first cruise.
