NORFOLK, Va.—Col. Peter A. (Duke) DeLuca, the new commander of the North Atlantic Division, met employees here for the first time Wednesday, and joined them on a tour of the Coast Guard buoy tender Frank Drew.
The vessel, moored at Norfolk District's Waterfield Building, offered employees an opportunity to learn the vessel's capabilities. The crew of the Frank Drew also demonstrated to DeLuca how closely the two federal agencies work together.
After a quick tour of the bridge and discussion with Frank Drew's captain, DeLuca attended a working luncheon with the district's senior leadership.
