The Story

The USS Whale (SSN-638), a storied Sturgeon-class submarine, made history in 1969, when it journeyed to the North Pole. The sub reached the North Pole, on the 6th April 1969, and surfaced there in commemoration of the 60th anniversary of Rear Admiral Robert E. Peary's 1909 arrival, becoming the first American to do so. Beneath Arctic ice and armed with the epoch's advanced navigation technology, it deftly navigated polar waters, revealing a new strategic dimension for naval operations. The Whale's expedition, a marvel of Cold War era submarine prowess, irrevocably charted the course of Arctic exploration and under-ice naval strategy.

This Military Tee from McCoy’s Sporting Goods is a slightly cropped vintage style fit. The t-shirt is cut from a mid-weight 8oz. 100% cotton fabric. Featuring a USS WHALE commemorative motif, rubber-printed by hand in our Kobe-based factory.
