The 2000 MED deployment took USS Cape St. George (CG-71) into a Mediterranean theater that demanded both operational skill and strategic awareness. With NATO still managing the aftermath of operations in Kosovo and the Cole attack in October reminding the fleet of the dangers lurking in ports and harbors, Cape St. George's crew adapted and performed. This sweatshirt is a tribute to the sailors of the 2000 MED deployment who kept the ship and the mission on track through a challenging operational year.
