USS Laboon (DDG-58) — Arleigh Burke-Class Destroyer
Some ships leave a wake that history never forgets. USS Laboon (DDG-58) is one of them.
Named for Father John Francis Laboon — a Navy chaplain, Silver Star recipient, and submarine warrior of World War II — this Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer has carried that legacy of courage into every sea she's sailed. From the coast of Libya to the Black Sea alongside NATO allies, from joint maneuvers with the Romanian Navy to the Red Sea on 14 April 2018, when she launched seven Tomahawk missiles in response to the Syrian government's use of chemical weapons — Laboon has answered the call, every time.
This long sleeve tee is built for those who know that name. Whether you served aboard her, alongside her, or simply respect what she represents, this shirt carries the weight of that history on your sleeve — literally.
