USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (CVA-42) 1960 MED CRUISE Sweatshirt

USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (CVA-42) was one of the storied Midway-class carriers that shaped American naval power through three decades of Cold War service. Commissioned in April 1945 and named for the thirty-second President who guided the nation through the Depression and World War II, she served as an attack carrier in the Mediterranean — a steady, powerful presence during the most consequential years of the Cold War. The 1960 MED CRUISE placed Roosevelt in the Mediterranean as superpower rivalry reached new intensity, America's commitment to its NATO allies demanding a visible, formidable force. This sweatshirt commemorates the 1960 cruise and honors all who served aboard her.
