Singapore Hosts USS Shiloh

The Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser USS Shiloh (CG 67) arrived in Singapore for a port visit, March 27.

Shiloh, with more than 350 Sailors, will spend several days in Singapore, enjoying the hospitality, history and heritage of the city and surrounding area.

Port visits provide U.S. Navy Sailors a chance to connect with the citizens and residents, while exploring the wide variety of experiences unique to a city or country.

The ship recently participated in the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition (LIMA) 2015 in Malaysia alongside Singaporean ships and personnel. On the last day of the event, Shiloh, the Republic of Singapore Navy frigate RSS Stalwart (72) and the patrol vessel RSS Sovereignty (84) carried out a passing exercise at sea with other LIMA participants.

Shiloh is on patrol in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of operation supporting security and stability in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.
