Woods harleston, South Carolina gkqyfofrv RICHMOND IC TURNER is homeport of Charleston, South Carolina has been described as historic , an ideal homeport , and a true deep southern town Charleston supports its Navy community with superb southern hospitality a great cost of living, and a beautyful area to live and work! From Mount Pleasant to West Ashley to Summerville and Moncks Corner the Navy is presence is felt at Friday night football games, at every public boat launch, and in most any activity taking place in the lowcountry. ix nk It was with deep regret that we learned ofthe decision to close man of Charlestonsjine Navalfacilities, and were J' forced to consider what it would mean to the large Navy 'fam- ily that calls Charleston home. The Navy has been an inte- gral part of Charlestons history, and without a doubt, the Navy legacy will be an important part ofthe lowcountrys ongoing story. 3-'fe iidib S !! if .Aix lHflVQ g,,..4f - - A A, i l ,ecpm mini-I Anchors aweigh my boys. . . We sail at break of day. . . And so we did. On a cool March morning, with many of our families watching from the pier or from Waterfront Park near the Battery in downtown Charleston, TURNER slipped away from Pier November past other shqys staying behind, under the Cooper River bridges, and past Fort Sumpter heading out to sea. Knowing that six months of separation from loved ones lay ahead, there were tears both on the ship and on the pier but the challenge ofthe months to come was primary on everyones minds. Y , 4 5,1 ,.

K X i x Atlantic Transit The transit across the Atlantic from Charleston to the Straits of Gibraltar was highlighted by a late winter storm lasting over four days. Ajier aajusting TURNER 's course to avoid the worst weather it appears that Mother Nature had other ideas! Sea- sickness, water leaks, a 0200 call to General Quarters, and ejected weightlwing equipment were all brought on by the relentless high winds and waves.

It seemed like the other ships in company were in the same spot day afer day aher day. The task of coming up with things to keep people busy fell on the Command Master Chief who prompted pizza feeds, bingo nights, movie marathons, and many more activities to make time pass. Finally almost within sight of the South Carolina coast, we had one last duty to perform, as a crippled fishing boat was taking on water and called for hehv. As one of our companion ships picked up the crew we strained to watch the boat slip beneath the sulface as darkness fell.
