Members of the United States Embassy in Wellington, New Zealand pose with U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Polar Star (WAGB 10) command after touring the cutter’s bridge, while Polar Star moored in Wellington, Dec. 13, 2021. Polar Star is the United States’ sole heavy ice breaker and the nearly 50-year-old vessel will continue to support Operation Deep Freeze until the Coast Guard’s newest icebreaking vessels are commissioned.
