This premium decorative flag faithfully reproduces the iconic battle flag of the USS Barb (SS-220), one of the most aggressive and successful submarines in U.S. Navy history. Commanded by Medal of Honor recipient Cmdr. Eugene “Lucky” Fluckey, the “Galloping Ghost of the China Coast” sank 17 Japanese vessels (over 96,000 tons) and famously conducted the only U.S. ground raid on the Japanese home islands when her crew blew up a train.
