Eagle Ship Wheel Round
Cadets training at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy and candidates of the Officer Candidate School get a chance to spin this wheel of the flagship of the U.S. Coast Guard fleet, the 295-foot Barque Eagle. This tall ship is the only active-duty sailing vessel in America's military, and gives each cadet a minimum of six weeks on board to learn basic seamanship, navigation skills, nautical traditions, and team-building.
