Great story from the Washington Post about LCdr Joel Fisher’s role in the recovery of Nazi loot during the closing days of World War II, as told by his daughter. An unexpected bit of Coast Guard history.

There is far more to this historical tale. Susan only had a bit of space and gave the bare bones of it. I was going to write it as history piece but Susan wanted to do it. I believe she is contemplating a book.
I have written about Coasties showing up in the oddest places. I do hope the Coast Guard takes the initiative and gets Fisher the Legion of Merit his commanding officer recommend for him.
Thanks for posting.
