Coast Guard Station San Juan personnel pull their Coast Guard 45-foot Response Boat--Medium out of the water as part of storm avoidance preparations at Coast Guard Base San Juan Aug. 27, 2019, in anticipation to Tropical Storm Dorian's approach to Puerto Rico. Coast Guard crews protect their vessels, equipment and infrastructure during a tropical storm or hurricane, so that they can be readily available to support Coast Guard missions, such as maritime search and rescue and port reconstitution efforts, once a major storm has cleared the area.
