 | | In observance of Black History Month and in celebration of the launching of the USCGC HEALY, Blacks in Alaska History Project, Inc., is mounting a photograph exhibit entitled "CAPTAIN HEALY: THE MAN, HIS SHIPS, AND THE HEALY." The photographic exhibit commemorates the contributions of Captain Healy to the State of Alaska. |
 | | Months before the launching of the Healy, Blacks in History Project, Inc. notified the news media, a member of the state legislature, Alaska Natives organizations, and the Governors office for help in publicizing information about the launching of the Healy to the people of Alaska. |
 | | Thanks to the spirit of Captain Michael A. Healy, the icebreaker made a big splash and got the attention of the country. |
