Faces of the Louis V
In the past two days, BGOS mooring C was recovered and redeployed, the
airgun and hydrophone array was towed, and more CTD/Rosette, XCTD, bongo
net, and optical profiler casts were taken. The fast and furious pace is
taxing to everyone onboard, but you never hear any complaints from any of
the officers and crew. Here are more of the worthy Faces of
the Louis.

reconnaissance and ice operations, and expertly handles all assignments. |

Blanchard. |
