Spencer Association, and local veterans groups saluted Signalman First Class Douglas Munro on the 66th anniversary of his heroic actions during a dedication and remembrance ceremony Saturday, Sept. 27, in the training center’s gymnasium.
The Coast Coast Guard Cutter Spencer’s mast was permanently displayed on the training center’s parade grounds Sept. 10, and dedicated at the ceremony.
The Spencer served the nation for more than 37 years and when decommissioned in 1974, the Spencer was the most decorated cutter in the Coast Guard’s fleet.
After the Spencer was decommissioned, the Spencer mast was displayed at the entrance of the Intrepid Museum in New York City.
Years later, the Coast Guard regained ownership of the mast and transferred it to Coast Guard Facilities Bayonne.
