The 2002 MED deployment placed USS Cape St. George (CG-71) at the forefront of the Global War on Terror. With Operation Enduring Freedom ongoing in Afghanistan and American forces building the campaign that would confront Iraq, the Mediterranean had become a critical staging ground for the nation's response to September 11. Cape St. George's Aegis-equipped crew stood watch over the 6th Fleet's operations, providing the air defense and strike capability that underpinned every mission in the theater. This long sleeve shirt honors the 2002 MED crew who answered America's call in the first full year of the GWOT.
