Family members wait for the United States Coast Guard Cutter James to reach its homeport in Charleston, S.C., Aug. 28, 2015. The James is the fifth NSC built out of eight planned for the Legend class cutter fleet. The ship’s namesake, Capt. Joshua James, a native of Hull, Massachusetts, is credited with saving more than 600 lives during his time with the U.S. Life-Saving Service, which merged with the Revenue Cutter Service in 1915 to create the modern U.S. Coast Guard. The James links today’s crew with the renowned lifesavers of the past. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. AJ Hyatt)
