Original PT 109 KENNEDY tie bar in very good condition. Produced by, and inscribed on the reverse by the original manufacturer "Jolle". PT-109 was a patrol boat commanded by Lieutenant, junior grade John F. Kennedy in the Pacific Theater during World War II. Kennedy's actions to save his surviving crew after the sinking of PT-109 made him a war hero, which proved helpful in his political career and helped him get elected President of the United States. A great gift idea for the JFK collector.
Historical Notes
The Japanese destroyer Amagiri, struck PT-109 forward of the starboard torpedo tube ripping away the starboard aft side of the boat. The collision tossed John F. Kennedy around the vessel
