PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii — The guided-missile cruiser Port Royal is returning this week from a deployment to the western Pacific and Middle East.

Port Royal is scheduled to pull into its home port of Pearl Harbor on Monday with its crew of more than 300 officers and sailors.

While deployed, Port Royal helped in transferring the defense of Iraqi territorial waters, as well as the Basra and Khawr Al Amaya oil terminals, to the Iraqi navy and Iraqi marines.
