USCGC Jacob Poroo (WPC-1125) is the 25th Sentinel-class cutter. She is homeported in Coast Guard District 8, Pascagoula, Mississippi.[2]

Design

Like her sister ships, she is designed to perform multiple missions, including interception of drug smuggling, coastal security, and search and rescue. She and her sisters are meant to replace the older 1980s-era Island-class patrol boats. Her equipment includes advanced command and control, communications, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, and a cutter deployment ramp to intercept other vessels.[3]

Namesake

She is named after Hospital Corpsman Jacob Poroo who died in a fire at the LORAN station he was at in Adak, Alaska. He escaped from the fire along with other men stationed there, but returned when he heard screaming coming from inside. After he returned with burns, a head count indicated no one was missing. Despite this, he taught uninjured men how to care for the ones who were injured. He died sixteen days later on June 18, 1968, from his injuries.[4]
