USS Enterprise (CVAN-65) was the world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, commissioned in 1961. Known as the Big E, she served for over 51 years before her decommissioning in 2017.
This heavyweight letterman jacket commemorates Enterprise's 1968 Vietnam combat deployment — a pivotal year that included response to the USS Pueblo seizure and continued Yankee Station operations in the South China Sea. Port visits included the Philippines, Japan, Hong Kong, and Hawaii.
