LOS ANGELES — U.S. Coast Guard Barque Eagle (WIX 327), America’s Tall Ship, will visit Los Angeles on Friday, Aug. 1, ahead of the Coast Guard’s 235th birthday.
The U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Eagle, seen from inside a Coast Guard MH-60T Jayhawk helicopter, departs Los Angeles Harbor on May 26, 2025. The Coast Guard uses the Eagle to train cadets and officer candidates, teaching them practical seamanship skills while indoctrinating them in the Coast Guard’s afloat leadership laboratory. The Eagle moored for Los Angeles Fleet Week 2025, where cadets led public tours of the ship and participated in morale events with other branches of the military to reinforce teamwork.
