Updated with News Clip: Station Gulfport Ribbon Cutting
Here is some great news coverage of the ceremony.
Shipmates,
After several years of planning and construction, including setbacks caused by Hurricanes Ike and Gustav, today we cut the ribbon on our new station at Gulfport, Mississippi which was lost in Hurricane Katrina. We were proud to have Congressmen Gene Taylor join us. Rep Taylor hails from Bay St Louis and lost his home during Hurricane Katrina. Included in the construction were facilities and moorings for ANT Gulfport, CGC RAZORBILL, and CGC POMPANO. Kudos to FDCC LANT and CEU Miami for their effort in making this day happen. My thanks also to CWO (BOSN) Martin and the crew for making this a very special day for the Coast Guard and the local community.
