Coast Guard Petty Officer 3rd Class Leroy Cherry, a boatswain's mate aboard the cutter Munro, stands watch on the bridge of the ship while transiting from Alameda, Calif., to Seattle, Wash., Mar. 27, 2017. Crewmembers aboard the ship stand watch and are essentially the eyes and ears for the Officer of the Day when it comes to spotting marine life or other vessels near the cutter.
