After Honlulu, she was assigned to Alameda for the 1990's and then to Alaska in 2007. I believe this is her Alameda patch but it may be more recent.

This USCG Rescue Swimmer patch came from the ASM shop at CGAirSta Corpus Christi, TX in 1999. Factory mistake- incomplete feather detail on the left side of Aircrew wing. I served there for about a year and a half.
