NOEL is a true piece of American history. She was part of the flotilla in the Normandy invasion in WWII, (known as an 83 footer by the Coast Guard), starred in a John Wayne movie “High and the Mighty.” 83370 is the first of the two white Coast Guard Cutters leaving the dock, when they are off to rescue the plane.
