A great part of Naval history.
You would be purchasing the USS Ozbourne DD 846 cruise book during this
time period. Each page has been placed on a CD for years of enjoyable computer viewing. The CD comes in
a plastic sleeve with a custom label. Every page has been enhanced and is readable. Rare cruise books like this
sell for a hundred dollars or more when buying the actual hard copy if you can find one for sale.
This would make
a great gift for yourself or someone you know who may have served aboard her. Usually only ONE person in the family
has the original book. The CD makes it possible for other family members to have a copy also. You will not be disappointed
we guarantee it.
