USS Ranger (CVA-61) 1961-62 Cruise Varsity Jacket

USS Ranger (CVA-61) was the third Forrestal-class supercarrier, commissioned in 1957 and the only ship of her class to spend her entire career in the Pacific Fleet. Flying from her decks, Ranger made repeated Western Pacific deployments and numerous combat cruises off Vietnam. She served until her decommissioning in 1993.
