17Sep05 US Flag on USCG Eagle - 5801

New London Waterfront Park

Photo a Day, Day 171...Went to Boats, Books and Brushes festival on the New London Waterfront today. The Coast Gaurds Eagle was there and took a small tour on it - the flag here is huge about 20ft tall... when it wasn't blowing in the wind its tip was touching the water since it was at half mast.
