Family members, friends and peers of Coast Guard Master Chief Petty Officer Michael Jones laugh as they listen to stories from his 30-year Coast Guard career during his retirement ceremony at Naval Station Mayport, Fla., May 24, 2013. Jones had many remarkable accomplishments throughout his career, but among the most notable are his involvement in the Coast Guard's initial response after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and his participation in the capture of Iraqi prisoners of war in the Northern Persian Gulf.
