MyCG announced Coast Guard Cutter Mellon as the Eight Bells multimedia contest winner. (No theirs is not the one I have included above. That one comes from Campbell and includes scenes from their exercise North of the Arctic Circle.)
You can see all the ten entries here. All the entries are worth a look. Well Done.
I am just passing this along:
