Ens. Abigail Goetsch, a landing signals officer aboard U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Stratton (752), uses visual signals to guide an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter aircrew as they land on the ship’s flight deck east of Japan, May 3, 2023. Among other uses, the helicopter served as a training and demonstration asset while Stratton deployed to the Western Pacific to engage with like-minded partner navies and coast guards who strive to ensure a rules-based order in the maritime domain.
