Craig
Blakely, commanding officer of Columbia. “Columbia performed superbly,demonstrating the versatility of the U.S. fast-attack submarine,” noted Blakely.
“Almost 70 percent of the Columbia crew was on their first deployment, but you would never know from their performance,”said Blakely. “I am extremely proud of the conduct of the crew. Whether playing soccer against our fellow submariners in South Korea or keeping the ship safe during stressful deployed operations,everyone was professional.”
