The crew of the Sentinel-class USCGC Glen Harris (WPC 1144) aboard a small boat assess an overloaded raft taking on water carrying migrants in the Atlantic Ocean prior to their subsequent rescue on Jan. 4, 2022. The Glen Harris, with USCGC Emlen Tunnell (WPC 1145) and the USCGC Thetis (WMEC 901) are conducting a routine patrol in the U.S. Sixth Fleet area of responsibility while the Sentinel-class cutters transit from the U.S. to their new homeport of Manama, Bahrain. U.S. Sixth Fleet, headquartered in Naples, Italy, conducts the full spectrum of joint and naval operations, often in concert with allied and interagency partners, to advance U.S. national interests, security, and stability in Europe and Africa.
