BALTIMORE — The U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Eagle is scheduled to arrive Saturday in Baltimore and has limited availability for media members to ride along.
Media requesting to ride along on cutter Eagle must contact the Coast Guard Public Affairs Detachment Baltimore office by email at [email protected] no later than 4 p.m. Tuesday to make a reservation and to receive instructions. Media will embark the Eagle from a small boat, which may be challenging for those with limited mobility.
The ride along will start at the U.S. Naval Academy.

....
Constructed in 1936 by the Blohm and Voss Shipyard in Hamburg, Germany, and originally commissioned as the Horst Wessel by the German Navy, the Eagle was taken by the United States as a war reparation following World War II. ...
