Eagle is a 295-foot, three-masted barque used as a training vessel for future officers of the United States Coast Guard. In addition to training, the Eagle acts as a goodwill ambassador while in foreign ports.
The Eagle was a former German ship that was decommissioned after World War II that was taken by the United States as war reparations.
