It’s that time of the year again where the 45628 gets put into winter layup. During this time the crew will conduct maintenance and get the 45 in tip top shape for when the ice melts.

Along with that, some of the crew got recognized for some accomplishments!

BM3 Carlson received the Bernie Award for 227 hours underway as a coxswain.

BM3 Jesseman received the Edgar Award for 220 hours underway as a crewman

BM2 Lazzari received the Law Dog Award for 84 boardings

And finally… FN Anderson Earned the Spirit of the Station Award! (Also the best mustache)

Ice Season is upon us and that means the crew ready to go!

Last night the crew had the opportunity to participate in the Christmas City of the North Parade!

“Attention to Award”

B/Z to Sn Kray on earning your Good Conduct award!

HSC HOY has demonstrated exceptional performance and unwavering dedication in her role as a health specialist. Her commitment to enhancing the well-being of those she serves is evident in every aspect of her work. Through her innovative approaches and compassionate care, she not only addressed health concerns but also promoted long-term wellness within the station. The morale you brought to station Duluth will be missed.

Fair winds and following seas Chief

It’s our birthday! On August 4th the coast guard celebrates coast guard day. Whether it's sharing sea stories, attending community events honoring the Coast Guard, or simply spending time together enjoying activities like co****le tournaments or bounce houses, celebrating this day with family and friends can create lasting memories and strengthen bonds. It's a time to reflect on the importance of unity, support, and appreciation for our shipmates.

Transfer season is in full swing. Even though it's sad to see them go, congratulations to BM2 Ellis, BM2 Ireland, BM2 Beal, and BM2 Tyree for their outstanding contributions and positive morale at USCG Station Duluth. We wish them all the best of luck as they embark on new assignments. They have made a lasting impact at the station and will be surely missed.

Now P-6 training with MK3 Kucler!

The P-6 pump is a critical piece of equipment used for dewatering and firefighting operations at USCG Station Duluth. Training on the proper use of the P-6 pump is essential for newly reported personnel to ensure they can effectively respond to emergencies and protect lives and property. Understanding the capabilities and limitations of the pump, as well as proper maintenance and troubleshooting procedures, is crucial for successful operations.

This week we had to say goodbye to another member of our engineering department MK3 Timm. MK3 has been here for 4.5 years and has been vital to keeping our boats and unit in tip top shape. Now he is able to bring his experience to his new unit in CA.

We also got to hand out some good conduct awards. Bravo Zulu!

It’s officially transfer season, which means we have to unfortunately start saying goodbye to some crew members. MK1 Powell served at STA Duluth from July 2020 to May 2024. He has been a great member in our engineering department and has provided tons of morale for the crew. His next stop is Hobucken, NC where he will serve as the Engineering Petty Officer at STA Hobucken!

Bravo Zulu MK1 and thank you for being a great shipmate to everyone!
