SAN FRANCISCO (July 23, 2008) -- Petty Officer Sandor Csitar with Hawk (left) and Petty Officer Anthony Ross with Chiquita prepare to search for explosives as the Coast Guard Cutter Eagle approaches a San Francisco pier during the Festival of Sail on San Francisco Bay. Petty Officers Csitar and Ross, as well as their dogs, are part of Maritime Safety and Security Team (MSST) San Francisco. The Eagle is a three-masted barque that carries square-rigged sails on the fore and main masts. The 295-foot long sailing vessel has served the Coast Guard since 1946 and is used as a training platform for cadets and officer candidates to learn leadership, teamwork, seamanship and navigation skills.
