The U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Eagle, a 295-foot barque that serves as a training vessel for the Coast Guard Academy, has made its way back to New York Harbor, marking a significant milestone in its annual training cruise. The Eagle, which is the largest tall ship in the U.S. fleet, embarked on a 14-week voyage in March, visiting ports in the Caribbean and South America. During its journey, the crew of 150 cadets and officers conducted training exercises, participated in community outreach programs, and engaged in cultural exchange with the people they met along the way. As the Eagle docks in New York, the public is invited to take a tour of the historic ship, offering a rare glimpse into the life of a Coast Guard cadet.
