USCG Cutter Acushnet - a photo on Flickriver

            Homeported in beautiful Ketchikan Alaska, USCGC ACUSHNET (WMEC 167) is the oldest commisioned cutter serving the U.S. Coast Guard earning her the title "Queen of the Fleet" and ceremonial gold hull numbers.  Originally commissioned as the U.S. Navy rescue and salvage ship USS SHACKLE (ARS 9) in 1944, she achieved an impressive service record during World War Two before being transferred to the U.S. Coast Guard in 1946.  
From Ketchikan, ACUSHNET patrols from the Arctic Ocean through the Bering Sea, Gulf of Alaska and North Pacific, and south to the Continental United States carrying out her primary missions of search and rescue, homeland security, maritime law enforcement, and environmental protection.
