Looks really nice Lazer-One! Great job. A couple of things I noticed:
- On the last version, the all red version. She was painted red in 1998, maybe change the 1990 date to 2000.
- On the 1944 version if you wanted add a vintage helicopter, I attached a nice view of one below.
- On the 1972 and 1998 versions, the Big Mac had the Coast Guard logo on the stack along with the letters "E DC". See picture below.
Someone mentioned "no guns?" the Coast Guard ships in the lakes probably do carry some light arms, but none on deck and visible. Pretty peaceful here
She was built to keep the shipping channels open during the cold months at the beginning and end of the shipping seasons, to keep the passage open for iron ore freighters from the upper lakes to the mills in the lower lakes for steel production. Not many warships were built on the lakes.
I hope this helps!
