À propos de cet audio
Today on Patrol Reports, we surface the story of the USS Will Rogers, the last of the “41 for Freedom.” She was a silent sentinel of the Cold War, built to carry peace through the threat of unimaginable power. From her first patrol in 1967 to her final days in the early 1990s, the Will Rogers stood watch in the deep, unseen but never idle.
Her namesake, the American humorist and philosopher Will Rogers, once said he never met a man he didn’t like. It was a fitting name for a boat that carried the burden of deterrence, trusting that her very presence would prevent the unthinkable.
Join us as we look back on her construction, her patrols, and the men who lived and served aboard her. This is the story of the last of her kind, and the quiet peace she helped preserve beneath the waves.
