Coast Guard Cutter Spar Escorts Damaged Sagitta Ship
The Bristol based Coast Guard Cutter Spar joined a rescue and escort of the damaged Navy ship Sagitta after a collision near Cape Cod. Lt. Richard Brooks said the Spar reached Sagitta 100 miles off the coast, helped steady the crippled vessel, and escorted her to Boston under power. The operation involved Navy ships and an amphibian plane, with Sagitta later tied up at Boston lightship. The Spar then returned to aid to navigation duties at Great Round Shoal and Bristol Depot.
