USS Leyte Gulf (CG-55) is a Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser commissioned on September 26, 1987, and homeported in Norfolk, Virginia. Named in honor of the Battle of Leyte Gulf — the largest naval battle in history — she answered the call in the aftermath of September 11, 2001. This product commemorates her 2001-02 deployment, during which Leyte Gulf deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, providing air defense and strike coordination for coalition forces in the Arabian Sea in the opening phase of the War on Terror. Wear it with pride to honor the officers and crew who served aboard CG-55 during that historic deployment.
