USS Vicksburg (CG-69) Ship's Crest Sweatshirt

Show your pride in USS Vicksburg (CG-69) with this Ship's Crest sweatshirt. A Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser commissioned on November 14, 1992 and homeported in Mayport, Florida, Vicksburg is named for the Siege of Vicksburg (1863) — one of the most consequential campaigns of the Civil War, in which Union forces under General Grant besieged and captured the Confederate stronghold on the Mississippi River, gaining control of the entire river and dividing the Confederacy. Throughout her distinguished career, Vicksburg has deployed extensively to the Mediterranean, Indian Ocean, and North Atlantic in defense of U.S. and allied interests. This sweatshirt features the ship's official crest and honors her crew's service.
