USS Nimitz (CVN-68) 1995-96 Cruise Sweatshirt

USS Nimitz (CVN-68) deployed on her 1995-96 cruise to the Western Pacific and Persian Gulf, operating in support of United Nations no-fly zone enforcement over Iraq and maintaining the forward presence that deters aggression throughout the Indo-Pacific region. During this period Nimitz and her carrier air wing conducted sustained flight operations across thousands of miles of open ocean, demonstrating the unmatched power projection capability that only a nuclear-powered supercarrier can provide. This sweatshirt commemorates the 1995-96 cruise of USS Nimitz, a tribute to the Sailors and aviators who served during this critical deployment.
