USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (CVA-42) 1972 MED CRUISE Sweatshirt

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 1972 MED CRUISE continued Roosevelt's long watch in the Mediterranean as the Vietnam War neared its end — the Paris Peace Accords signed the following January, and the slow unwinding of America's longest war under way. Roosevelt held her station with the steady professionalism that defined her throughout her service. This sweatshirt commemorates the 1972 cruise and honors all who served aboard her.
