    The Pride of the Pacific USCGC Morgenthau (WHEC 722) saw many crews in its 48 year service and ended it with a Bering Sea Patrol in January 2017. Morgenthau was built in Avondale Shipyard in New Orleans, commissioned in 1969. It's crews have sailed the world aboard its decks and while it's time in our fleet is nearing its end we have confidence it will go on to serve others. (U.S. Coast Guard selfie by Capt. St. Pierre, Historical image circa 1970, U.S. Coast Guard banner photo by Seaman Lilburn/Released)

    This collage documents the history and decommissioning of USCGC Morgenthau (WHEC-722), a U.S. Coast Guard High Endurance Cutter. The images span different eras of the vessel's service from 1969 to 2017, including a modern crew selfie, a vintage black-and-white crew gathering, a final voyage banner, and the official ship's seal. The ship served in the Pacific and was decommissioned in 2017 after 48 years of service.
    The image is a side-by-side composite of two photographs. The left photo shows a woman in a U.S. Coast Guard shirt smiling at a desk in what appears to be an office or workstation. The right photo is a black-and-white portrait of two young individuals, likely from the 1970s or 1980s based on the photographic style and hairstyles.
    The image consists of two side-by-side photographs, both appearing to be taken aboard naval or coast guard vessels at sea. The left photo is a modern color image of a young man in a navy blue hoodie and cap posing on deck with the ocean in the background. The right photo is a vintage black-and-white image showing a large group of uniformed personnel gathered on a ship's deck.
    A two-panel image contrasting different eras of the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Morgenthau. The left panel shows a modern color photo of a crew member preparing food in the ship's galley, while the right panel is a vintage black-and-white photo showing uniformed sailors on the ship's deck. Both images are connected by visible references to the USCGC Morgenthau, based in New York.
    Two side-by-side photographs taken aboard a naval or coast guard vessel at sea. The left image shows a sailor in color posing near a large mounted telescope/binocular on deck, while the right black-and-white image shows two crew members performing maintenance or operational tasks on deck. Both images depict maritime military or coast guard operations in open water conditions.
    Two side-by-side images depicting naval vessel control rooms or engine rooms at different time periods. The left image shows a modern color photograph of a sailor seated in front of an extensive panel of gauges and instruments. The right image is a black-and-white photograph showing multiple crew members working at a similar but older-era control console.
    Two side-by-side photographs depicting naval or maritime vessel bridge/pilothouse environments. The left image shows a smiling person in cold-weather gear standing at a ship's helm in color, while the right black-and-white image shows multiple crew members working at navigation and control stations. Both images document operational activity aboard what appears to be a military or coast guard vessel.
