The crew of the USS Oklahoma City returned to a warm welcome home to Norfolk, VA in early November.

After six months away, the LA Class fast-attack submarine and its crew of 110 sailors came home to Norfolk. While away, they conducted classified missions in the Persian Gulf in support of the global War on Terror.

The crew also did some important public relations work, serving as ambassadors for the Navy during port visits to Spain, Bahrain, Jebel Ali, United Arab Emirates, Diego Garcia, Crete, Greece and France. The Association congratulates the crew for a successful deployment. Well Done!

Sub Topics is an every-so-often feature of the USS Oklahoma City website. It is compiled and submitted by our association Secretary Paul Dillon, RMCM USN(Ret) who was aboard the Okie from 68-70.
