POUGHKEEPSIE, NEW YORK – Partner agencies that participated in Operation Safe Hudson stand for a photograph in front of the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Shrike Aug. 24, 2018. The Coast Guard works closely with agencies such as the Sherriff’s Departments from Ulster and Duchess Counties, New York Department of Environmental Conservation, and the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary to education the boating public about being safe on the water. Today members from each agency were able to get underway for a brief cruise up the Hudson River aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Shrike. (U.S. Coast Guard photo by Chief Warrant Officer Allyson E.T.
