Three military vessels will be visiting Saipan this week for rest and recreation.

The USNS Concord will arrive on Saipan today, Wednesday and leave tomorrow, Thursday. This ship carries both civilian and military personnel, for a total of 130 persons.

The USS Houston and USS Stetham will arrive on Saipan tomorrow, June 9, and leave on Monday, June 13. The submarine USS Houston carries 158 men and arrives at 2pm; the USS Stetham arrives at 6pm and carries 320 personnel.

The Saipan Chamber of Commerce is urging its members to provide a military discount to these visitors and help greet them.

“Thanks for your support in helping to keep Saipan one of the most attractive R&R sites in the Pacific!” said chamber executive director Christine Parke.
