It’s been decades since the Coast Guard has had a volunteer civilian detachment in Wrangell, but one Wrangellite is trying to change that.
Listen to the story here.
Coast Guard Auxiliary Commander David Larkin is wearing black military boots and a navy-blue baseball cap that reads ‘U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary.’ Both of his navy blue uniform lapels have what appear to be eagle patches. He holds a clipboard and stands on one of the floats at Wrangell’s Shoemaker Harbor.
