What did USS Yorktown do in 1969?

By 1969, USS Yorktown (CVS-10) was serving as an anti-submarine warfare carrier in the North Atlantic, tracking Soviet submarine activity during one of the most intense periods of Cold War undersea competition. She had also made history as the recovery ship for Apollo 8 in December 1968.

Why does the ship say CVS-10 instead of CV-10?

CVS was the designation for an anti-submarine warfare carrier — a role USS Yorktown held in her final years before decommissioning in 1970. The CVS designation reflects her mission of tracking Soviet submarines during the Cold War. She is now preserved as a museum ship in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina.

Is this a good gift for a Navy veteran?

Absolutely. These designs are ship-specific — they honor the exact ship and deployment, not just generic Navy gear. Perfect for veterans who served aboard USS Yorktown, and for their families who want to honor that service.
