UMM QASAR, IRAQ (May 2, 2003) -- Members of the buoy deck crew secure the last original Iraqi buoy alongside the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Walnut (WLB-205) in preparation for lifting it aboard the seagoing buoy tender. The replacement of aids to navigation along the Khawr 'Abd Allah was a major step in preparing for the resumption of commercial traffic to the port of Umm Qasr. USCG photo by PA1 John Gaffney
