Petty Officer 1st Class Richard Jakubowicz, an engineer aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Bristol Bay, chips ice off the cutter's crane with a hammer as the crew of the cutter participates in Operation Fall Retrieve in Lake Erie, Dec. 7, 2013. During the winter months, lake spray almost instantly freezes when it hits the cutter's deck, railings and instruments. (U.S. Coast Guard photo by Ensign Tyler Bittner)
