Vandegrift intercepted approximately 19,833 pounds of cocaine and disrupted numerous other illegal drug shipments. The ship's crew also participated in three community relations projects in Panama City including building a workshop for the blind, refurbishing a building and spending time with children in the AIDS community. This is the Vandegrift's final deployment; after 30 years of service she will be decommissioned. Named for Marine Corps General Alexander A. Vandegrift, built at Todd Pacific Shipyards in Seattle, commissioned Nov. 24, 1984.
