North Little Rock acquired the submarine from Turkey in March after the Turkish Navy, which purchased the sub from U.S. Navy in 1970, decommis- sioned it. John Ranguette of Fort Myers served on the USS Razorback from 1960 to 1962 and was in Key West to wel- come it home. "She looks beat up but she sure looks beautiful to us," Ranguette said after touring the Razorback. "She has some rust and so forth but I know that will be taken care of." The Razorback will head through the Gulf of Mexico today and is scheduled to arrive in New Orleans on Saturday. The submarine should arrive at its perma- nent home in North Little Rock in late July where it will become a tourist attrac- tion as part of an inland maritime museum. Gene Haley, who served on the Razorback from 1945 to 1948, planned to accom- pany the sub while it is towed to New Orleans. The former quartermaster from Ogunquit, Maine, will serve as navigator during the Razorback's final sea voy- age. Haley was on board in 1948 when the Razorback transported former Chinese leader Chiang Kai-shek Key West Mayor jimmy Weekley also helped to mark the USS Razorback's return on Sunday. Weekley said his city had a submarine base in the 1950s and that the Razorback's return helped to pay tribute to the city's Naval history. "We saw it as a chance for some of our residents who were here at that time to relive that history," he said. DONATE YOUR CAR BOAT OR R.V. •TAX DEDUCTIBLE RCT.GNU .......
