Auxiliary vessel 403929 and it's crew responded to the WTC disaster at 1600 on 9/11/01. We assisted the CG Cutter Adak in keeping N.Y. Harbor closed  with our crew consisting of Ken Sutherland, FC-14-01, Paula Jaklitsch, VFC-14-01, Don Jaklitsch and yours truly. The next morning, with crew of  Ken Sutherland and John Hood of Flotilla 14-04 and yours truly, (Paula  Jaklitsch was recalled to Active Duty) we were dispatched to North Cove Marina to be the Bravo-0 SAR vessel while all the other CG assets were busy.
