| Description |
English: Insignia of the U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Saratoga (CV-3). Description (USN): "The "Crowling Cock" is the insignia of the U.S.S. Saratoga (...). On board the original Saratoga during the Battle of Lake Champlain, a chicken pen was damaged by gunfire, which allowed a cock to escape. The bird flew with the rigging and crowed lustily. It was just at this moment that the turning point of the battle occured, and the cock has, since that time, been held as a symbol of good luck to the Saratoga." |
