Commissioned in 1945 and modernized into one of the most capable attack carriers in the fleet, USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (CVA-42) earned a distinguished record across decades of Cold War service. The 1971 MED CRUISE came as the attack carrier (CVA) designation was being phased out across the fleet, marking a transition in how the Navy defined its carriers. Roosevelt carried out her mission with the same distinction she had always brought to the Mediterranean, honoring the long legacy of her crew. This t-shirt commemorates the 1971 cruise and honors all who served aboard her.
