Merchant mariners, chaplains from the Seamen's Church Institute, and a United States Coast Guard honor guard met at the American Merchant Marine Memorial to remember those lost at sea and pay tribute to the men and women who work in, or on, the sea. Amver depends on merchant mariner participation from around the world to ensure no call for help goes unanswered and we were honored to attend the observance.
