 On October 20, 1990, actor/comedian Steve Martin and his wife, actress
Victoria Tennant, visited for a handshake, photograph and autograph tour. The tour was
sponsored by the USO, after Mr. Martin approached them about wanting to go to the Gulf and
help with the morale of the troops.The Martins were extremely well received and much appreciated by the crew as Mr. Martin joked his way about the deck. Though he presented no formal performance, Mr. Martin was his, "wild and crazy" self throughout the visit. Both Martin and Tennant used the ship's closed-circuit television system to talk to the crew. Martin also was the first celebrity to autograph Turret#1 during his visit.
