    In commemoration of the sinking of the SS Andea Doria, an MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew from the U.S. Coast Guard Air Station Cape Cod performed a hoist and recovery maneuver to simulate a search and rescue in Boston Harbor on Thursday, July 25, 2024. On July 25, 1956, the MS Stockholm collided with the SS Andrea Doria resulting in 51 deaths and 1,644 rescued passengers. The U.S. Lightship Museum hosted the 68th anniversary commemoration of the SS Andrea Doria’s sinking, honoring the Coast Guard’s significant role in one of the greatest maritime rescues in history.
