Orange Silhouetted USS Little Rock Canvas Print

This image portrays the US Navy Cruiser the USS Little Rock as she sits at the Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park in Buffalo NY. The USS Little Rock was a Cleveland-class light cruiser completed after World War 2 and one of six to be converted to a guided missile cruiser. She was the first US Navy ship to be named for Little Rock, Arkansas. Commissioned in mid-1945, she was completed too late to see combat duty during World War II. After an initial South American cruise, she spent the next few years serving off the east coast of the U.S., in the Caribbean, and in the Mediterranean. Like all but one of her sister ships, she was retired in the post-war defense cutbacks, becoming part of the Atlantic Reserve Fleet in 1949.
