When Operation Iraqi Freedom began in March 2003, USS Cape St. George (CG-71) was forward deployed in the Eastern Mediterranean and Indian Ocean, ready to answer the call. Her crew launched Tomahawk Land Attack Missiles into Iraq — precision strikes that contributed to the opening phase of the coalition campaign. For the sailors of the 2003 MED/IO, this deployment was the moment their training became history. This sweatshirt honors their service aboard one of the Navy's finest Aegis cruisers.
