U.S. Coast Guard Academy cadets set a
sail on the "Tall Ship" Eagle at its homeport in New London,
Connecticut during April 2021.
The 295-foot Barque Eagle is the
flagship of the U.S. Coast Guard. She serves as a training
vessel for cadets at the Coast Guard Academy and candidates
from the Officer Candidate School. The "Tall Ship" Eagle is
the only active-duty sailing vessel in America's military,
and one of only two commissioned sailing vessels, along with
the USS Constitution.
