WWII Submarine Launch Tag for the USS Sennet SS-408

This is a World War II submarine launch tag for the USS Sennet SS-408, launched on June 6, 1944 at Portsmouth (NH) Naval Shipyard. The Sennet was sent off my Mrs. Roscoe W. Downs, the first woman in New Hampshire to have five sons enlisted in the armed services. Happily, all five of the Downs boys made it home from the war. Sennett received four battle stars for her World War II service.

Circa 1944.

About 1-3/4 in width by 2-1/8" in height.

Foiled card stock.

Silk string.

None.

This is from a large collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months.

8 (Excellent-): This tag shows minor wear, and the tag you receive will either be this one or one in very similar condition.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
