    USS COLE COMMEMORATION

    USS Cole Commemoration

    USS Cole Commemoration    

    On the morning of Oct. 12, 2000, USS Cole (DDG 67) was attacked by terrorists while moored for refueling in the Port of Aden, Yemen. Seventeen Sailors lost their lives and 37 more were injured that day. The scheduled commemoration events this year remember and honor the 20th anniversary of the 17 Sailors who were lost from the attack, the Gold Star families, and the crew who so valiantly fought to save their ship and return it to service.
