USCG LDC (U.S. Coast Guard) Accent Coffee Mug

The U.S. Coast Guard Lifecycle Designation Code (LDC) is a unique identifier assigned to each vessel operating under the jurisdiction of the United States Coast Guard (USCG). The LDC provides crucial information about a vessel's purpose, construction, and operational capabilities, enabling efficient management by the USCG. Vessels may be designated as patrol boats, cutters, tugs, buoy tenders, or other specific roles based on their primary functions. These designations help ensure the effective deployment of Coast Guard resources in fulfilling its mission to protect the public, the environment, and U.S. economic and security interests throughout the coastal regions, inland waterways, and the exclusive economic zone.
