Crew members gather to discuss a part of the buoy evolution while working aids to navigation aboard USCGC Sycamore (WLB-209) in Long Island Sound, NY, on Oct. 20, 2021. Often during buoy evolutions, there can be pauses in the action to gather the crew together to discuss changes in the evolution to ensure everyone is aware of the next steps being taken depending on the situation.
