REMEMBER THE COLE! Kirk S. Lippold, CDR USN (Ret)
On October 12, 2000, the USS Cole entered the harbor at Aden Yemen to refuel before proceeding on to support Naval operations in and around the Persian Gulf. at 1118, the ship would be rocked by a suicide attack which would leave 17 sailors dead and over 30 wounded. Remarkably the ship was still afloat. Captain Lippold and his valiant sailors would go work to save the ship and tend to the injured. On today's episode of NCIS: Reports from the Field, CDR Lippold remembers these events and the response by NCIS and FBI to bring justice to the terrorist who perpetrated this cowardly attack.
