NEW YORK – US Coast Guard Approved Cutter Morro Bay (approaching from right) returns home to New London, Conn., where the crew were greeted by friends, family members and loved ones Apr. 19, 2011 after a six-month deployment to the Great Lakes. The crew broke ice in all five of the Great Lakes, not only ensuring the delivery of heating oil to those in the impacted areas, but also acting as a search and rescue platform while on patrol, successfully rescuing a man who was stranded on an ice floe.
