Rich, I always have kind words and praise for the Coast Guard, possibly evidenced by my numerous posts within the The United States Coast Guard forum here.

The Taney was a perfect choice for an Anchor Bay piece. There is so much history and honor surrounding this particular ship, and it is a great representative of other USCG Cutters that have performed outstanding service with little glory.

I'm anxious to see the detailed photos and view Harry's handiwork.

Do you know if the platform is attached or a separate piece? The initial photos make the base appear to be attached. I'm just being curious.
