U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety Unit personnel recently assisted the Coast Guard’s Lake Charles station in Hurricane Laura relief efforts by looking for damaged or displaced channel markings in the area and reporting them back to the Morgan City Aids to Navigation Team. The Morgan City Aids to Navigation Team, along with teams from Dulac and New Orleans, worked together to replace them. Local Coast Guard members who took the trip to the Lake Charles area to assess Laura’s damage were, from left, Boatswain’s Mate First Class Geoffrey Wells, Maritime Enforcement Specialist Second Class Andrew Moynihan and Maritime Enforcement Specialist Second Class Brian Head.
