What the design shows

The printed text sits in white and blue lettering across the top and bottom, with blue stars scattered as a patriotic accent throughout. At the center is a color photograph of the USS Ranger itself—the carrier in profile, surrounded by water, showing the full scale and power of the ship. The lettering uses a bold, legible style that reads clearly from a distance. The photograph is detailed enough that you can see the flight deck, the tower structure, and the aircraft parked on her surface. Together, the text and image create a tribute to the specific carrier and the men and women who made her their workplace, their home, and their naval history.
