USS Coral Sea CV-43 Sticker — The Ageless Warrior of the Fleet
USS Coral Sea served for four decades and three wars — one of the most seasoned carriers in Navy history.
USS Coral Sea (CV-43) was a Midway-class aircraft carrier that served in the United States Navy from 1947 to 1990. Named for the pivotal World War II naval battle, CV-43 saw combat in the Korean War, Vietnam War, and participated in Cold War operations worldwide. Coral Sea earned the nickname "Ageless Warrior" for her remarkably long service life. Despite being one of the oldest carriers in the fleet, she continued deploying effectively well into the 1980s. Her 43 years of service spanned the transition from propeller aircraft to supersonic jets, making her one of the most experienced conventional carriers ever.
Perfect For: USS Coral Sea CV-43 veterans, Midway-class enthusiasts, Vietnam and Korean War carrier sailors, and carrier heritage sticker collectors.
