Petty Officer 1st Class Kevin Aulph, the Coast Guard Ceremonial Honor Guard's silent drill team petty officer, passes through the formation while members of the silent drill team pass their rifles back forth during a demonstration at the ceremony designating New York City a Coast Guard City on May 10, 2018. The designation is predicated on New York City's ability to erect monuments to the Coast Guard, organize civic celebrations and offer special recognition and support U.S. Coast Guard morale, welfare and recreational initiatives.
