Coast Guard Cutter Rollin Fritch berthed in its homeport in Cape May, NJ. Fritch was a crew member aboard the USS Callaway during World War II and died during a Kamikaze attack January 8, 1945. He was posthumously awarded the Silver Star Medal, the third-highest decoration a servicemember can receive, as well as the Purple Heart.
In November 2014, the Coast Guard announced the names of the 10 newest 154-foot Fast Response Cutters (FRC), one of which would be homeported in Cape May, New Jersey, and officially commissioned on November 19, 2016.
The FRCs are named after Coast Guard enlisted heroes and are replacing the aging Island-class 110 foot patrol boats.
