Officially Licensed US Navy Carrier Strike Group Five Sticker - U.S. Navy Carrier Strike Group Five (CSG-5), the Navy's only continuously forward-deployed carrier strike group, officially licensed vinyl sticker.
Forward-deployed, always on watch, and anchored in Yokosuka — CSG-5 is the persistent edge of American naval power across the Indo-Pacific.
Carrier Strike Group Five traces its lineage to Carrier Division Five, formed in April 1944 at Pearl Harbor and forged through sustained combat operations across the Western Pacific in World War II. By October 1973, the group made history when it arrived in Yokosuka, Japan aboard USS Midway, marking the first forward-deployment of a complete carrier battle group in a Japanese port. Today, CSG-5 remains the U.S. Navy's sole continuously forward-deployed carrier strike group, operating under the U.S. 7th Fleet as Task Force 70. The flagship USS George Washington, along with Carrier Air Wing Five and a screen of Ticonderoga-class cruisers and Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, sustains around-the-clock readiness across the Indo-Pacific. The group serves as Theater Strike Warfare Commander for the entire Seventh Fleet area of responsibility, coordinating deterrence, freedom of navigation operations, crisis response, and coalition exercises with allies including the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. This officially licensed vinyl sticker captures that identity in a durable, weather-resistant format suited for gear, vehicles, laptops, cruise books, shadow box frames, and display boards.
Perfect For: U.S. Navy veterans, CSG-5 and 7th Fleet alumni, USS George Washington and USS Ronald Reagan crew members, Carrier Air Wing Five sailors, Destroyer Squadron 15 veterans, forward-deployed Navy families, Indo-Pacific naval history collectors, military sticker enthusiasts, shadow box builders, and anyone who wants a clean, officially licensed piece tied to the Navy's most persistently deployed carrier strike group. It also makes a meaningful gift for supporters who follow the history of American naval presence in the Western Pacific from the Korean War through today's Indo-Pacific operations.
Yokosuka-based, Indo-Pacific proven, and officially licensed for the sailors who keep the watch.
