A Local Update On The Princess Grace
Joe:
That vessel Princess Grace that was once the Coast Guard Cutter MALLOW...
As she is prepared for being broken up, here is a photo of MALLOW being launched in December, 1943 at the shipyard where she was built in Duluth, Minnesota.
Another interesting piece of history: MALLOW was commissioned into Coast Guard service on June 6, 1944 -- the very day Allied troops were landing at Normandy on D-Day.
