We are almost there! Annie is continuing to heal and is scheduled to graduate October 22, 2010. She received her first assignment and will be on the USCG Cutter Dallas, which is stationed out of Charleston, SC.
The USCG Cutter Dallas (WHEC 716) is one of only two Coast Guard high endurance cutters on the East Coast. The Dallas primarily patrols the Caribbean for counter-drug operations that include identification and prosecution of suspected drug traffickers. The ship's crew also keeps watch near the Cuban coast, patrolling for Cuban-American protesters' vessels and illegal migrants at sea. The Dallas often hosts Coast Guard cadets, officer candidates and foreign nationals for hands-on training. The Dallas also assists in humanitarian efforts when requested such as the Haitian Earthquake earlier this year.
