Warwick Lighthouse (aka Warwick Neck Lighthouse), 7/22/23. The current tower was built in 1932, replacing the original tower built in 1826. Warwick Lighthouse is among ten others nationally that the U.S. Government designated for disposal and is offering to transfer to non-profits or municipalities. For now, it remains a Coast Guard installation, though unused, except for the light, which will remain an active aid to navigation.

For all those upset about the sub media coverage, I get it.

I personally have been an operator during migrant operations during one of the worst migration periods in maritime history.

There is a reason you wonโ€™t see it on TV often. Itโ€™s not because they are poor, itโ€™s because the amount of migrant movement is overwhelming and creates more danger to those involved.

Unless you have been to sea in a role as a humanitarian and life saver, please remember the media is not saving lives, they are in the way.

In addition the United States Coast Guard doesnโ€™t care how much money you have, if you need help, you get help.

Ask me what itโ€™s like to have a fantail overloaded of staving humans, or scared humans trafficked 1000โ€™s of miles sitting in their own shit and piss for weeks, because I wonโ€™t forget.

I also wonโ€™t forget risking my life 2 times in a week to save the same crew and vessel, a multimillion dollar yacht, that almost killed me and a few friends, being unprepared.
