- USCGC_Morgenthau_(WHEC-722) abstract "The United States Coast Guard cutter USCGC Morgenthau (WHEC-722) is the eighth of twelve 378-foot dual-powered turbine/diesel Hamilton-class high endurance cutters (WHECs) built by Avondale Shipyards in New Orleans, Louisiana. The military high endurance cutter was commissioned on March 10, 1969.As of November 2013 Morgenthau is homeported in Honolulu, Hawaii, at Sand Island, a small island within Honolulu's city limits. The cutter currently patrols from South America to the Bering Sea, conducting counter-narcotics missions, alien migrant interdiction operations, foreign and domestic fisheries enforcement, and search and rescue.In the 1960s-1970s the "jet-powered" Hamilton-class cutters were state-of-the-art, technologically innovative, and the pride of the Coast Guard cutter fleet. At the time, the most distinctive aspect of the Hamilton-class cutters were its twin turbine engines capable of propelling the cutter from 0 to 30+ knots in 60 seconds. (And with its large variable pitch propellers, coming to a full stop equally as fast.) Due to the Cold War, Hamilton-class cutters were configured for anti-submarine warfare (ASW): the ability to find, track, and damage or destroy enemy submarines. Each ship has a helicopter flight deck, and retractable hangar within which to store a helicopter for missions. Other features noteworthy at the time included a variable pitch propeller, and bow thruster allowing the ship to berth horizontally to a dock. The cutter has comfortable quarters, and the capability to stay at sea for 45 days.Over its long, distinguished 43-year career (1969- ) Morgenthau has received numerous awards, commendations, and unit citations, including a Navy Meritorious Unit Commendation in 1971 during the Vietnam War, Combat Action Ribbon to the 1971 Captain and crew, and multiple Battle "E" (Battle Effectiveness Award) for the ship's demonstrated excellence and superior achievement during certification and qualification competitions. Since its 1969 commissioning Morgenthau has had two crests and unit motto (commonly referred to as "unit patches"). When commissioned, Morgenthau had a shield style crest, with the motto "Efficiency and Honor is Our Destiny." When in 1977 Morgenthau moved to the San Francisco Bay Area and homeported in Alameda, the crest changed to a circular style with the Latin motto Decus Pacifici (although the Latin word decus can have different meanings, the US Coast Guard translates the motto as "Pride of the Pacific").".
