Remembering USS Fortify and Her Crew

Preserve a personal connection to USS Fortify with this handcrafted USS Fortify (MSO-446) minesweeper 3D LED lamp. Its compact hull, prominent mast, and distinctive ocean-minesweeper profile make it a meaningful piece for former crew members, sailors, Navy veterans, military families, ship collectors, and naval history enthusiasts.

The USS Fortify design is precision-etched into a clear acrylic panel. When placed in the illuminated LED base, the engraved lines glow to create the appearance of a three-dimensional ship floating above the stand.
