Friends and family await the return of the Coast Guard Cutter Stratton to its homeport in Alameda, California, October 4, 2018, following the cutter’s 104-day patrol. The cutter steamed more than 25,000 nautical miles during the patrol, which took the crew from above the Arctic Circle to the Eastern Pacific Ocean where the crew seized more than 16,000 pounds of cocaine from seven interdictions in less than 30 days.
