Zippo Richmond K. Turner CG-20 lighteren blev købt i den Persiske Gulf 1991, under den danske deltagelse i Operation Desert Storm.
Zippoen her er ubrugt, men ikke 100% i overfladen med bl.a. en meget lille ridse.
"In response to the crisis in the Persian Gulf caused by Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, Richmond K. Turner deployed early as a primary AAW unit in the Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) battle group, which arrived in the theater just before hostilities broke out. During 60 days in the Persian Gulf, Richmond K. Turner provided protection to four carriers and served as an advance picket ship in the mine infested waters off Kuwait. Following the cease fire, Richmond K. Turner relocated to the Red Sea where it participated in the continuing maritime interception operations in support of U.N. sanctions against Iraq.
Escorting USS Theodore Roosevelt through the Suez Canal in late April 1991, Richmond K. Turner participated in Operation Provide Comfort, a massive relief effort to help tens of thousands of Kurdish refugees who fled the turmoil of Iraq following that country's defeat in the war. During this time Richmond K. Turner became the Anti-Air Warfare Commander for the Aircraft Carrier Striking Force, U.S. Sixth Fleet." (Wikipedia)
