THE USS LEXINGTON

Live Aboard The Blue Ghost

Patch measures about 3.25" tall x 4.25" wide

Located in Corpus Christi, Texas, the aircraft carrier USS Lexington (CV-16) participated in almost every major World War II naval campaign in the Pacific from 1943 to 1945. The ship was a highly decorated warship, receiving numerous citations acknowledging her exemplary service. As an Essex-class carrier, Lexington is also important for illustrating the development of aircraft carrier design, the refinement of multi-carrier operations, and the integration of aviation as a primary strike weapon in naval strategy.

The patch is complete and in NEW condition and doesn't appear to be used. (see pictures)
