Look What our "Adopt a Sailors" are doing. Rock on USS Rodney M. Davis!
9. Everett-Based Frigate Captures Cocaine Worth $90 Million
(EVERETT (WA) HERALD 08 DEC 08) ... Jackson Holtz
EVERETT - A Navy frigate based in Everett on Friday captured a fishing vessel
in the eastern Pacific that military officials say was carrying more than 4
metric tons of cocaine valued at more than $90 million.
The USS Rodney M. Davis, home-ported in Everett, was working with the U.S.
Coast Guard and the Joint Interagency Task Force-South conducting counter
narcotics operations, Navy Lt. Myers Vasquez said.
Nine suspected smugglers were arrested during Friday's incident.
Vasquez would not disclose the home-port of the fishing vessel or the precise
location of the seizure.
The Davis has a history of drug fighting work. In April 2001, the Davis
helped with the largest cocaine seizure in maritime history when sailors
boarded a fishing boat from Belize about 1,500 miles south of San Diego,
according to a Navy Web site. The fishing vessel was carrying nearly 27,000
pounds of cocaine, about three times more than Friday's seizure.
