Transcription

Construction

Wayne E. Meyer is the 58th destroyer in her class. She was built by Bath Iron Works, and was christened by sponsor Anna Mae Meyer, wife of Admiral Meyer, and launched on 18 October 2008. She completed sea trials in June 2009, and was delivered to the Navy in July 2009.[1] She was commissioned on the Delaware River, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on 10 October 2009.

Ship history

Wayne E. Meyer arrived at her homeport in San Diego, California, on 4 December 2009.[citation needed]

Wayne E. Meyer made her maiden deployment as part of the John C. Stennis Carrier Strike Group (CSG) from 29 July 2011 until 27 February 2012. She made port calls in Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Bahrain, Dubai, and the Philippines.[citation needed]

In January 2017, Wayne E. Meyer, and her sister ship Michael Murphy, were part of Destroyer Squadron 1, and along with Lake Champlain and Carl Vinson formed Carrier Strike Group One (CSG-1), during a deployment to the western Pacific. In April of that year, CSG-1 cancelled a scheduled port call in Australia, in response to increasing tensions between the United States and North Korea over the latter's nuclear weapons program.[3]

In September 2018 Wayne E. Meyer and O'Kane completed homeport swaps. Wayne E. Meyer arrived at Joint Base Pearl Harbor–Hickam on 13 September, and O'Kane got underway for her new homeport of San Diego.[citation needed]
