USS Leyte Gulf (CG-55) 2008-09 Deployment Sweatshirt

USS Leyte Gulf (CG-55) is a Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser commissioned on September 26, 1987, and homeported in Norfolk, Virginia. Named in honor of the Battle of Leyte Gulf — the largest naval battle in history — she has served with distinction across the Atlantic Fleet for over three decades. This product commemorates her 2008-09 deployment, during which Leyte Gulf deployed to the Mediterranean and Arabian Gulf in support of carrier strike group operations and maritime security. Wear it with pride to honor the officers and crew who served aboard CG-55 during that deployment.
