Bridge of the USCGC Sea Devil

  • Original caption: "
    Petty Officer 2nd Class Michael S. Sheahan, a boatswain's mate assigned to Coast Guard Cutter Sea Devil, an 87-foot patrol boat attached to Coast Guard Maritime Force Protection Unit Bangor, Wash., explains how to operate the cutter's on board weapons system to a group of Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps cadets from Bremerton High School in Bremerton, Wash., while underway in Puget Sound, March 24, 2014. The Sea Devil and its sister ship, Coast Guard Cutter Sea Fox, were established to assist the Navy in providing security for U.S. Navy Nuclear Ballistic Missile Submarines transiting in the vicinity of their homeport of Bangor, Wash.

Note: while most of the Marine Protector class vessels main armament are a pair of crew-served BMG, no more accurate than when the weapon was introduced, 100 years ago, the Sea Devil, Sea Fox, Sea Dog, and Sea Dragon are equipped with a third, more accurate, gyro-stabilized machine gun, remotely controlled from the bridge. These four vessels escort the Navy's big nuclear subs when they are surfaced, and vulnerable, while entering and exiting harbor. They are seen as vulnerable to attack by suicide bombers carrying bombs in speedboats.
