Special Event Station to Museum Ships On The Air!
The activity will be held between 28-29 June 2025. 
Originally built by the United States on May 10, 1946, near the end of World War II, the ship was commissioned as USS Everson. It later served in both the Korean and Vietnam Wars. After years of active duty in the U.S. Navy, it was purchased by Türkiye on July 11, 1973. On its journey to Türkiye, the ship made port calls in Panama, Puerto Rico, the Azores, and Spain, and was subsequently commissioned into the Turkish Navy under the name TCG Gayret.

Between 1975 and 1995, TCG Gayret took part in numerous naval exercises. It was decommissioned on May 5, 1995, and after undergoing maintenance and modifications, it was opened to the public as a museum ship on August 20, 1997, under the name TCG Gayret Museum.
