Maritime Matinee: ‘The Eagle: America’s Tall ship’
May 15, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Free
A never-before-seen look at one of the most unique U.S. Coast Guard training exercises at sea, this film gives an unprecedented firsthand experience of life aboard America’s Tall Ship. Christened in the German Navy and seized as a war prize during World War II, Eagle today trains over 600 new officer cadets every year. The pace is hectic, the action is nonstop, and the dangers are ever present. The 80-minute film will be screened in the museum auditorium. Free, no registration required.
