This was the final deployment of one of the greatest warships America ever built. When USS Constellation sailed in late 2002, families knew this cruise would be different — and it was. Operation Iraqi Freedom launched on March 20, 2003, and Constellation was in the fight from the first night, her air wing striking targets across Iraq as a nation held its breath. For the families who waited through it all — the deployment, the war, the homecoming — this was a chapter unlike any other. And then, on August 7, 2003, 'Connie' decommissioned after 41 years of service. Your sailor was there for all of it. This piece is for your family.
