On 3 September 1996, while in the Carl Vinson battle group, Shiloh launched 14 Tomahawk cruise missiles in Operation Desert Strike against Iraq. In August 2000, Shiloh deployed with the Abraham Lincoln battle group for a six-month assignment. She deployed with the Battle Group again in July 2002, and was among the first cruisers to launch missiles in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Shiloh returned to her homeport San Diego, California on 25 April 2003, ending an unusually long nine-month deployment. In January 2005, she participated in Operation Unified Assistance.
