USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) 1998 Cruise Shirt

Fleet Admiral Arleigh "31-Knot" Burke made his name by hitting hard and hitting first — and the destroyer that bears his name has tried to live up to that standard in every deployment. In 1998, USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) deployed as tensions with Saddam Hussein's Iraq came to a head. When Saddam expelled UN weapons inspectors, the U.S. and Britain responded with Operation Desert Fox — four days of precision strikes in December 1998 aimed at degrading Iraq's weapons programs. Arleigh Burke's crew stood ready in a volatile region, carrying forward the aggressive, ready-to-engage legacy of the admiral for whom she was named.
