$156.95

Created by the crew of USS Buchanan (DDG-14) to commemorate the Westpac 1972 cruise, this rare copy of the U.S. Naval history cruise book is valuable military memorabilia - why purchase a scanned reproduction of a used copy of this Guided Missile Destroyer when you can be the original owner of collectible Navy memorabilia in good condition? Pages are clean and unmarked, minor scuff marks to the cover and slight wear on the gold emblem. This WESTPAC Vietnam era Navy cruise book is a record for sailors and their families to document and better understand life aboard ship during challenging times. The USS Buchanan cruise book includes group portraits of the crew, and many photos from ports of call. Buchanan was the only deep water USS war ship to have been hit twice by North Vietnamese artillery, on May 29, 1968 and April 17, 1972.
Cruise books are created for private distribution. They are not official Navy publications, and the Navy does not stock, sell, or republish these books. This can make copies of some books, especially older volumes, extremely rare.
