We got on a Coast Guard cutter! 

I was on the Dallas WHEC 716 WESTPAC cruise (Vietnam) 69-70 as a SNGM/GM3, now retired CWO4WEPS

Can’t tell you how much I enjoyed seeing this. Signed, former Gunners Mate Third Class Dennis Quigley. USCGC Midgett 726 Commissioning Crew. P.S. I agree with Sean Monaghan above, hard to believe my “brand new” cutter is soon to be decommissioned.

I was on this ship 35 years ago!

I was on USCGC Gallatin from 2007-2010. Wild times!

I was on the Abseacon for two years, good duty.

The CIWS gun has gotta be the one of the coolest guns in the WORLD. Change my mind....I’ll wait.

This was really cool!

73'-77' Evergreen. a summer on the Eagle and a year and a half ar the Academy water front best duty ever!

I was stationed on the CGC Midgett! I miss that ship, I can’t believe she is getting decommissioned soon :(

Gallatin’71 -73 Gov. Is. I disagree with the broadcaster. It wasn’t a cool job; it was an ADVENTURE. Many Great Sea Stories from the Arctic to GITMO. Go Guard !👍🏻🇺🇸

KING 5 THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR VIDEO (MILITARY MACHINES OF WAR) 🇺🇸THANKS AGAIN 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

It looks like the cutter Mackinaw in northern Michigan.

What kind of cutter is it? From the design I’m guessing a 270 foot cutter?
