RESEARCHER NOTICE:

U.S. Navy and Coast Guard deck logs related to the Vietnam Era will be closed for research due to a digitization agreement with the Department of Veterans Affairs.

The following records at The National Archives at Philadelphia will close on December 9, 2019: RG 26, Logbooks of U.S. Coast Guard Stations and Vessels, 1960-1975.
