The command and crew of the USCGC Healy (WAGB 20) transit off of Portsmouth, Virginia, on Oct. 24, 2021. The cutter crew is deployed for four and a half months to conduct operational ice testing, strengthen relationships with partner nations, project U.S. presence, and protect U.S. sovereignty rights along the shared U.S.-Russia maritime boundary line. These efforts uphold the rule of law and deter threats to international maritime norms. (U.S. Coast Guard photo by Lt. Dana Grady)
