Launching the U.S.S. Ambassador Quinn

As a special gesture by the staff of the US Embassy in Phnom Penh, shortly before he and his wife departed the post in 1999, the Embassy River Boat was named in honor of Ambassador Quinn. He and his wife, Le Son, were the guests of honor on the initial launch of the craft and cruised along the Mekong River. Key members of the Embassy team including DCM Carol Rodley were present on the journey during which Ambassador Quinn took his turn at the helm.
