Visitation by the Coast Guard Commandant, the 9th District Commander, and the MCPO of the Coast Guard, would have to impress on the crew of the WLBB 30 MACKINAW, how important this new ship is and what is expected of a ship and crew that is replacing a legend.

Granted, pressure like that probably isn't fair, but life isn't fair. Then again, anyone who wanted to be a member of this crew, should have known what they would be up against.

From what I've read and heard about Commander Little, he is the right man to command this ship and lead her crew.
