    The Coast Guard Cutter John F. McCormick transits up the Columbia River next to the 52-foot motor lifeboat Triumph II, from Station Cape Disappointment in Ilwaco, Wash., during a visit to the service area of the cutter's namesake, March 11, 2017.

    John F. McCormick was the commanding officer of the Point Adams Lifesaving Station in Hammond, Ore., and used the original lifeboat Triumph to earn a Gold Lifesaving Medal for a successful rescue of a shipmate during a dire situation at the mouth of the Columbia River in 1938.
