A Shout-Out to one of our first Volunteers, Andrew Shook

Chief Mate, Charlie Porzelt checks out

Seaman Apprentice Andrew Shook, USCG, has just reported to Kodiak Alaska, to join his first ship, USCG Cutter Douglas Monroe. 
Andrew began volunteering with Spirit of South Carolina in 2018 during his Junior year of High School, and continued actively throughout his senior year and after graduation until enlisting in the Coast Guard. Andrew is the nephew of Capt Ben Hall, past Skipper of Spirit of South Carolina.
Fair Winds, Andrew!
