BobG Posted March 9, 2022 #2 Posted March 9, 2022 Thanks for posting this link, Keith. I served aboard the USCGC Storis (WAGB-38), for 1 1/2 years in 1966-67. She was built in Toledo in 1941. She was one of 3 Coast Guard cutters to complete the first complete voyage through the Northwest Passage in the Arctic Ocean in 1957 and had a long, storied history of patrolling and search and rescue in the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska. thibaultron, mtaylor and Keith Black 3 Bob Garcia "Measure once, cuss twice!"
