Banished to Japan, their are still family members here in Ingleside in limbo. The homeport is still officially Ingleside TX

[ingledude]

They are? Did they get heavy lifted from Japan or go under there own power?

Plankowner here. THanks for the video. Great crew and Capt. Rawls was the best skipper in the Navy.

[ingledude]

In my opinion, for best skipper would be a toss up between CDR Kuffel and CDR Shoen.

I was on board The Avenger 1996-2000. I have sceen good times and bad times on board, but the crew worked well as a team. Be safe.

I was in Walmart here in Ohio the other day wearing my tattered avenger cover, and there was a guy in the next lane over who had a USS Defender cover on. Talk about small world.  - Bertolino

Ok, banished to the 7th Fleet AOR. Oh hey smart move let's leave the east coast with no mine warfare assets. The Navy has never like mine warfare.

I'll have to scan my pictures and download videos of the deployments from '97 and '99. I'll vote for CDR Shoen for best CO.
