Uss Samuel B Roberts (FFG-58)

USS Samuel B. Roberts (FFG-58) was an Oliver Hazard Perry-class guided-missile frigate commissioned into the United States Navy in 1986. The ship is best known for surviving a devastating Iranian mine strike in the Persian Gulf on April 14, 1988, during Operation Earnest Will, when her crew's swift and skillful damage control efforts saved the vessel from sinking. Following extensive repairs, the Samuel B. Roberts returned to service, participating in various operations and exercises, including counter-narcotics patrols and multinational exercises. The frigate was decommissioned in 2015 after nearly three decades of distinguished service.
