Food service specialist and nighttime baker

ATLANTIC OCEAN--Coast Guard Petty Officer 2nd Class Dave Blonn takes loaves of fresh baked bread out of the galley oven onboard the Coast Guard Cutter Forward while underway during an Africa Partnership Station (APS) mission May 31, 2011.
The Forward is the primary operational platform for the APS initiative in 2011, and will be working with our African partner nations to strengthen global maritime partnerships through operations and other collaborative activities, including law enforcement, seamanship, search and rescue operations, environmental stewardship, maritime awareness, medical readiness, and navigation. The team of five food service specialists prepare three meals a day for the crew of the Forward, as well as a snack for late night watch standers.
