ABOARD CGC ACACIA (March 19, 2004)— Boatswains Mate Second Class Jack Sattler and Seaman Michael Sawicki pull a tag line to swing a 26-foot, 12,000-pound buoy in position aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Acacia. Once in position the buoy will be secured until it is time to place it in the water. Acacia was in the Chicago area to check and replace buoys for the 2004 Great Lakes shipping season. Acacia is a 180-foot sea going buoy tender built in 1944 home ported in Charlevoix, Mich. Photo by PA1 Paul Roszkowski
