Message: On 13 January 2015, while I was walking near the Taşucu Port with my friends, we saw that the soldiers on the TCSG-305 Boat gave a new flag to a foreign vessel situated at the port which was waving a worn and old Turkish flag. The TCSG-305 Boat staff told the crew on the said vessel that they should show respect to the Turkish flag. They said that the Turkish flag is sacred for the Turkish nation. We felt really honored and happy to hear that. We would like to thank to these soldiers who protected our flag.

Thanks to the Turkish Coast Guard Dear Commandant, On 12 February 2015, the Moldovan flagged vessel called CIMMIL, with the IMO number 8319976, at the weight of 997 gross 1506 tons, had to took shelter at the İğneada Port because of the load sliding that occurred due to the heavy sea conditions while sailing towards the Izmit Port with the wood load charged at the Burgaz Port in Bulgaria. The sliding deck load due to the sea conditions had the risk of causing a danger at the strait transition, therefore handling had to be redone which was not possible for the vessel crew. We deeply appreciate the efforts of Boat Commander and all the staff of Coast Guard İğneada who realized the gravity of the incident and worked really hard to help us with their profound maritime knowledge in line with the law and regulations by providing coordination with the Port Authority and Pazarkule Customs Directorate. We feel deeply honored to have Coast Guard Staff who possess the maritime manners and customs. We would like to thank to the Coast Guard Command who has such a great staff and makes us feel that pride. Yours respectfully Tuzla Shipping Agency Necati Patruna 87
