In 1978-79, USS Constellation (CV-64) took her place on station in the Western Pacific as the Cold War continued its relentless rhythm of presence, deterrence, and readiness. "Connie" — commissioned October 27, 1961 — was a proven ship by then, with Vietnam in her wake and decades of service still ahead. The 1978-79 cruise kept faith with America's Pacific commitments at a pivotal moment: Soviet naval power was growing, allies needed reassurance, and Constellation answered the call. The crew who made this deployment earned the right to wear her crest.
