This book takes a deep dive into the Cold War careers of the US Navy’s last gun destroyers, from the modernized Fletcher-class to the Forrest Sherman-class.

Explore the enduring legacy of these World War II-era destroyers, which remained in service long after the war’s end.

Discover the various modernizations and conversions they underwent, including their transformation into ASW escorts and guided missile destroyers.

Learn about the Sumner-class destroyers, the Gearing-class, and the Forrest Sherman-class, the pinnacle of US Navy gun-destroyer design.

The book also highlights the lesser-known Norfolk-class and the later modernization of these ships for ASW and antiair warfare.

Illustrated with battlescene artwork, detailed illustrations, and photographs, this book tells the fascinating story of these “unsung stalwarts,” the last gun destroyers of the US Navy.

Nice!
Color: Brown, Size: XX-Large
A lot better made than I anticipated. Looks and feels like suede. For my needs, it was perfect for a costume. Fits well, and looks more expensive.

Good fit
Color: Light Grey, Size: Medium
A nice vest and a true slim fit. Good quality for the price and no satin back, the material is used for the whole vest, allowing it to be worn without a jacket and still look smart. I am 6' 3" and 200lbs with a slim build, the Medium size fit like a glove, snug but not tight as a waistcoat should be.
