Members of the Coast Guard's Eighth District are given a tour of a state-of-the-art towboat during one of the three field trips in the Western Rivers Orientation Course held in Louisville, Ky., Sept. 10, 2014. The three-day course is intended to give Coastguardsmen an overview of industry, infrastructure, terminology and day to day operations, as well as allow them to meet people who work in the river industries.
