A message arrives, the crew is mustered, and the word is passed. We have been assigned to US Coast Guard Squadron 3, part of Operation Market Time, operating off South Viet-Nam. This is the voyage of the USCGC Androscoggin and her crew at war. |

CROSSED THE BAR On 29 February 36 years ago, I watched a truly professional team
of Coast Guardsmen in combat action. According to COMNAVFORV, it was the
most significant naval action of the Vietnam war. You not only taught the
North Vietnamese Navy a lesson but our own Navy as well. Both learned
that the Coast Guard could fight. That lesson for our Navy has
favorably impacted and enhanced Navy/Coast Guard relations ever since. |
