Varsity / Cruise Jackets
Cruise jacket sizing runs true to standard letterman fits. Check the size chart photo in each jacket listing for exact measurements.
How to measure: lay a shirt that fits you well on a flat surface. Measure across the chest from armpit to armpit (chest width) and from the highest point of the shoulder to the bottom hem (length), then compare to the chart.

The 1972-73 deployment of USS America (CVA-66) was one of the most consequential of the entire Vietnam War. When North Vietnam launched the Easter Offensive in the spring of 1972, CVA-66 surged into the Gulf of Tonkin and flew relentlessly through Operation Linebacker — the most intensive bombing campaign of the war — helping to halt the invasion. Operation Linebacker II followed in December 1972, and the Paris Peace Accords were signed on January 27, 1973. Few deployments in the history of naval aviation produced results as decisive as this one. The crew of CVA-66 was there from the first day to the last.
