This month's Quarterdeck comes a bit early as we remember September 11, 2001. Amver was fortunate enough to sit down with Coast Guard Captain Linda Fagan, Sector New York Commanding Officer and Captain of the Port of New York.
In this episode Captain Fagan discusses the maritime response to September 11th, how things have changed in New York harbor and the cooperation that has helped the response to incidents like the airplane crash in the Hudson River and Hurricane Irene.
Captain Fagan also says she wants to hear from you. If you have a question or comment for Captain Fagan feel free to share it in the comments section and we will pass it along to her.
