USS Bunker Hill (CG-52) 1987 Long Sleeve Cruise Shirt

In 1987, USS Bunker Hill (CG-52) deployed to the Persian Gulf during Operation Earnest Will — the largest naval convoy operation since World War II. Commissioned on January 20, 1986, the Ticonderoga-class Aegis guided missile cruiser stood as the fleet's most advanced air defense platform, her SPY-1 radar tracking threats across hundreds of miles. In the contested waters of the Strait of Hormuz, Bunker Hill helped escort reflagged Kuwaiti oil tankers through the Tanker War between Iran and Iraq, protecting the free flow of commerce under constant threat of attack. This long sleeve cruise shirt honors those who stood watch in one of the most dangerous peacetime deployments in Navy history.
