Taken in May 2000 by the ship's embarked SH-2G from HSL-84 outbound from Matzalan, Mexico enroute to her homeport in San Diego from her last deployment in U.S. service. During this deployment, the ship interdicted and estimated 11.5 metric tons of cocaine and disrupted drug-running operations in the Western Pacific and Caribbean. The ship was decommissioned 1 September 2000 and immediately recommissioned in the Turkish Navy as TCG Gediz (F-495). She and her crew were great and lived up to the ship's motto "Never Give In!" I was privileged to be her last CO in the US Navy. |
