USS COLE DDG-67

Tragedy at Sea

Our Hearts go out to our Pen Pal Ship

   

 "Determined Warrior, one terrible moment in time will not stop you!"

USS COLE is part of the George Washington Battlegroup which is homeported in Norfolk, Virginia. The ship was damaged by an apparent terrorist attack on October 12, 2000,in Yemen.

We feel the loss of these sailors, and we wish to add our sympathies to that of the entire nation as we salute the jobs these brave sailors do for our country.
