To thank the crew members of the USS Robert E. Lee (SSBN/SSN-601) for making donations to our Cold War Memorial Fund, we commissioned a Cold War POLARIS Patrol pin and a Cold War SSBN Patrol pin. We awarded them during a moving ceremony at our reunion in Charleston, SC on May 21, 2005 after our marble bench was installed at the Cold War Memorial. Our Reunion's guest speaker, King's Bay COMSUBGRU10's Command Master Chief Tim Pew awarded them to our COs and COBs, who in turn awarded them to our crew. Not a dry eye in the crowd as our wives pinned these on their husbands. Video shot by Lynda VeArd. MC is Tim VeArd, Lee Assn President & USSVI CTO.
