Crewmembers from the Coast Guard Cutter Northland (WMEC 904) and the LAE Isla San Cristobal pose for a photo, May 10, 2022, after joint training operations to strengthen United States-Ecuador strategic relations in the region. The Northland is a 270-foot medium-endurance cutter homeported in Portsmouth, Virginia and routinely deploys in support of counter-drug, alien migrant interdiction, fisheries, search and rescue, and homeland security missions.
