The Washington Examiner steps onboard the USCGC William Tate, one of the crucial vessels that helped clear the channel for cargo ship Dali to move for the first time in 55 days A couple of months have passed since the cargo ship Dali struck Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge, which collapsed, killing six construction workers...
