A wonderful maritime themed tie for veterans, members of the navy, and history buffs, this tie is patterned with American battleships, each labeled with their name and number. Made from silk, this eye-catching accessory makes a perfectly patriotic gift.

The original Continental Navy was established on October 13, 1775. By the end of the Revolutionary War, the Naval fleet had grown to over 50 ships and had established itself as an integral part of American defense. Several naval emblems represented this nautical branch of service until Executive Order 10736 was signed by President Dwight D. Eisenhower on October 23, 1957, designating the single Navy emblem.
