In the meantime I hope you enjoy this interview series about a tragic real life incident that happened here in our maritime neighborhood.
In this final segment of my lengthy interview with author John Kopp about his book, CG41332, we talk more about USCG training. The book, published in 2023, tells the story of a Coast Guard training tragedy that happened on the Columbia River Bar in 1977, and the changes that happened in the agency as result of the accident, which claimed three lives.
