The Coast Guard took delivery of the USCGC Nathan Bruckenthal (WPC-1118), built by the Lockport, La.-based Bollinger Shipyards, and delivered to Key West, Fla. The 154-foot patrol craft is the 28th vessel in the CG's Sentinel-class Fast Response Cutter (FRC) program. Bollinger used a proven in-service parent craft design, based on the Damen Stan Patrol Boat 4708, to build the FRC. (Source:
