    Final patrol of the Pride of the Pacific

    Ensign Orgill mans engineering aboard the USCGC Morgenthau (USCGC 722) during a fianl Bering Sea Patrol in January 2017. After more than four decades Morgenthau was decommissioned in April. "It has been an amazing experience. The beginning of my career is the end of the Morgenthau's. As a student engineer I'm particularly happy I got this experience. New ship's are vastly more automated than a '378. There is no mouse click that will turn a valve here, but that's good. It has forced me to learn hands on, get in the bilges and turn wrenches. WMSLs and OPCs are our future, but I'm certainly glad I got started here." -- Ensign Matt Orgill (U.S. Coast Guard photo by Ensign Brandon Newman/Released, Historical image circa 1970)
