We are gathering artifacts and pictures/videos to be displayed aboard STORIS when she is returned to Juneau

Captain Arthur Morrison, USCG (Ret), is seen standing next to our first major artifact, being donated to the STORIS Museum by the SS Lane Victory.  Captain Morrison, who served in STORIS in the early 50’s, helped us in locating the 3”/50 Single Gun shown.  He is currently working with the SS Lane Victory and the US Navy to obtain permission for the transfer to the STORIS Museum.  It is excess to the Lane Victory and will be relocated to STORIS and installed on the fo’c’sle, where originally a 3”/50 Single Gun was installed for service in Greenland during WWII.

We are working on a major video for Coast Guard history in Alaska. We need your videos and pictures of all activities related to the Coast Guard in Alaska. Pictures and videos received will be screened for possible use in the video being put together in Juneau.

Check your garage and/or attic for artifacts and pictures/videos that you would be willing to donate to the STORIS Museum.  Remember we will be honoring the U. S. Coast Guard, U. S. Revenue Cutter Service, and the Lighthouse Service and all other maritime activities and history in Alaska.

Artifacts may be sent to the below contacts.  Artifacts donated in the lower 48 will be stored until STORIS is ready to be returned to Alaska and then transported aboard STORIS back to Juneau.
