In this work from the U.S. Coast Guard Art Program 2015 Collection, “Fire Drill at Sea,” ID# 201522, a petty officer records the sequence of events for a fire drill that took place aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Gallatin. Because there are no police or fire stations at sea, crews perform numerous emergency drills while underway in order to prepare themselves for a real emergency. Home ported in Charleston, S.C., the Gallatin is a 378-foot high endurance cutter that performs a myriad of missions including migrant and drug interdictions, homeland security patrols, search and rescue, and fisheries enforcement.
