USCGC MORGENTHAU MUG

This is something that means alot to me..I hold this dear..and not because i made this or sell it it's because there is a story behind it.

I was stationed on board the United States Coast Guard Cutter Morgenthau from 1989 till 1991 till it went into revamp. During this time there were a few adventures like being stationed here through the First Persian Gulf incident..but the one i will tell you is the United States Coast Guard Cutter was on routine patrol of the Waters of Alaska when we diverted from this to follow a Taiwanese fishing vessel fishing Chum Salmon illegally we chased in pursuit and the people were caught doing a joint boarding with the Japanese Coast Guard.
